14 Elite had the top seed in their pool at Qualifier 3, and did not disappoint when they finished 1st in their pool. And finishing 1st means they’ll start the season playing in SCVA Division 1.

“The girls have worked so hard. From late Sunday practices to early Sunday practices. And it paid off. I wanted this team to be the loudest, hardest working team in the 14’s Division, and it’s clear that we’re on our way,” said head coach Stephanie Eskander. 

The squad took down Sunshine 14 North, Lava 14 South and Bakersfield Club Jamba. Yet, the final match against 2nd seed Jamba was anything but smooth.

“We really battled it out against Jamba. They’re a great team. But it was great to see us win tight matches that mattered. That’s really when team chemistry, working hard and being loud matters,” concluded Eskander.

14 Elite doesn’t play again for another month at SCVA Mandatory 1. And while starting in Division 1 is awesome, finishing in Division 1 is even awesome-er
