The Vikings beach volleyball team ended the season with an overall record of 12-11 with a home record of 5-6 and an away record of 4-4 after not making it past the first day of the Pairs State Championship on May 9.
“It meant a lot to me, especially because I got to play with people that were new to the game so it was very fun to teach them new ways about beach volleyball,” player Enaya Vaielua said.
The Vikings had a record of 5-3 in the South Coast College Conference, falling in second place behind Mt. San Antonio, who had a record of 7-1.
However, the Vikings came in ninth place at the Southern California team regionals, losing both matches to San Diego Mesa and Ventura College.
“Something I would have to work on is taking accountability because on the beach it’s all you and your partner out there. So it forces you to be mature about your mistakes and own up to them,” player Alana Jones said.
This year’s player achievements included a win at the 2025 SCC Pairs Championship by Enaya Vaielua and Tyreana Allen, cousins who have played together since they were kids.
“I actually played with my cousin that tournament, and at first, the first day was really easy for us because we kind of went in just knowing that we were good enough to play against other schools and when it came to the second day it did get harder,” Vaielua said.
Both Allen and Vaielua, along with their teammates Mikayla Curry and Kaylani Moncada, secured spots in the Pairs State Championships, however both pairs lost and did not advance to the final day of the championships.
Curry and Moncada also made the first all-conference team, while their teammates Ryannah Gagau, Alexandra Rosquin, Ryleeh Tuaolo, and Camille Agrupis were named to the second all-conference team.
Making the all-conference team is similar to being selected for an all-star team, as they both are away to acknowledge the top performers during the season.
This is Curry’s second consecutive season being selected for the SCC first all-conference team.
The next season for the Vikings will start in February 2026.
