Dos Pueblos won two epic games, 30-28, 28-26, before losing the remaining three, 25-22, 26-24, 15-11, against Ventura on Tuesday in a Channel League volleyball match.
After the 2-0 start, the Chargers were unable to continue their surge against a strong Ventura team.
“They were just grind-out games and we came out on top in the first two,” DP coach Chris Hughes said. “These games are not over until the last ball hits the ground. We need to work on playing strong and finishing an entire match. Ventura had a big game and we just didn’t have it tonight.”
Gabe Burdick had 17 kills with 4 blocks and Mansai Connor pitched in with 15 kills and five blocks for the Chargers, who moved to 3-2 in Channel League. They face Santa Barbara on Thursday at home.
