Prep roundup: San Luis Obispo boys volleyball team sweeps Mission Prep

The San Luis Obispo High boys volleyball team held on to second place in the PAC 8 with a 3-0 win Thursday over Mission Prep.

San Luis Obispo’s (13-6, 4-1 PAC 8) offense was led by Nick Attala with eight kills. Three Tigers — Sawyer McSorley, John Duffy and Alex Chai — had five kills each.

“We really spread the ball around tonight,” San Luis Obispo coach Braidy Halverson said.

Senior Bowen Schoerer was in charge of distribution from the setter spot and finished the game with 32 assists.

San Luis Obispo will now turn its attention to one of the biggest matches of the season — a Tuesday home match against league leader Arroyo Grande. The outcome will go a long way in determining the PAC 8 champion.

Arroyo Grande defeated San Luis Obispo 3-0 the last time the teams met in the second week of the season.
