Although they started this season determined for a championship title, the Lions lost 3-2 to Cambridge Rindge and Latin in a Central-East Div.1 first round tournament game.
CAMBRIDGE -- Four points away from a decisive game five victory, the Newton South girls volleyball team appeared to be in the driver’s seat Friday night to advance to the Div. 1 Central-East sectional quarterfinals. But those travel plans were canceled as the Lions let slip a six-point lead, losing the set 15-12 to Cambridge Rindge and Latin. The other scores were 16-25, 25-20, 21-25, and 25-18. “A little inconsistent coming down the end,” said Newton coach Todd Elwell. “Sometimes that pressure can be a little tough on you.

The Lions, unable to find a grove throughout the match, fell 3-0 to Acton-Boxborough at Newton South High School Tuesday afternoon. The scores were 25-18, 25-19, and 25-21. “It’s always a problem when you graduate the majority of your seniors and you’re starting over a little bit,” said Lions coach Todd Elwell. “These kids worked extremely hard in the offseason, so it was kind of my expectation that they were going to come in and fill the shoes because every year you graduate seniors.” He added, “So we don’t want to make excuses for not being at a certain level.” For Colonials …
