Centennial won all three of its matches in pool play Friday at Foothill, taking each match to a decisive third set before pulling out a win.
The Bulldogs beat Buchanan (Calif.), 19-25, 27-25, 25-16, then downed Seaquam (Canada), 25-22, 24-26, 26-24.
In its final match of the night, Centennial handed Coronado a 25-23, 13-25, 25-21 setback.
Bishop Gorman also went 3-0 in its pool.
Playing at Durango, the Gaels beat the host school (25-15, 25-20), then downed Clovis (Calif.) by a 23-25, 25-17, 25-21 count, and beat Rim of the World (Calif.), 21-25, 25-14, 27-25.
Coronado and Silverado each went 2-1 in pool play.

One bad game before the season even started. Ok bonanza and I can't remember if it was even a real game. Wasn't it best of three with a cap of 27? Yeah I think so.

Fan wrote on September 27, 2010 09:56 PM: I've watched every one of Centennials games so far and I have listened to them talk about playing Gorman. If they can play as good as they have been and play with as much intensity as they have whenever they even think about Gorman then they can definitely beat them and anybody else who stands in their way of the state title. wrote on September 27, 2010 06:24 PM: New season new players move on wrote on September 27, 2010 01:39 PM: Gorman didn't play in the lvi last year but gorman beat centennial at the Durango classic last year as well as in regionals Support wrote on September 26, 2010 09:50 PM: Good job girls! Keep up the good work. Nice way to start at the bottom and work your way up! It's going to be a great season! gotta do better wrote on September 26, 2010 07:56 PM: Good try. Gorman didn't play in the LVI last year. Gorman only lost to one Nevada team all year and that would be Silverado. Ksnsbdidd wrote on September 26, 2010 07:46 PM: Centennial beat Gorman at the LVI last year. Check it! I bet all you lowlifes don't even play volleyball. HA! facts straight wrote on September 26, 2010 07:28 PM: Gorman beat Centennial TWICE last year. Once at Durango and once in the playoffs. Centennial did NOT beat Gorman. wrote on September 26, 2010 06:26 PM: who cares about last year in the first place? neither gorman or centennial won state last year, so why is everyone so hung up on who beat who last year? this year is what matters, and from the looks of it, the scores don't lie. but the true test will be when these two teams play each other, not anyone else.
