St. Alban Roe sixth grade boys of the West County District in Wildwood capped off a great season by defeating a St. Margaret Mary team from the South County District, 25-21, 25-22 in the finals of the Archdiocesan Championship on Sunday afternoon.

After achieving runner-up in a pre-season tournament at Mary Mother of the Church in August, the Alban Roe team went on to a 13-0 record in matches and 33-4 in games, winning the South Central District League Championship and the West County District Tournament, in addition to the Overall City/County Championship on Sunday.

“The boys really came together as a team this year,” said Ken Kruse, the team’s coach. 

“Volleyball is a great sport, and helped teach the boys that you cannot always do it alone."
