It went the distance — five sets, right down to the final kill — but the Long Island crown went to Plainedge on Tuesday afternoon at Hauppauge High School.
Our Golden Flashes, Suffolk County Class A champions after beating Islip 3-1 on November 2, met Nassau champion Plainedge for the Long Island Class A championship on Tuesday, November 10, at 4:00 PM. Plainedge, playing for the first Long Island title in school history, took the match in five sets, the last point falling on Angelina Puglisi’s kill.
Sayville’s season ends as Suffolk County champions — a fine season, and a final that gave the alumni in the stands everything a championship should: a full five sets, and a team that would not quit.
Congratulations to Plainedge, and thank you to our Golden Flashes for a season to be proud of.
