The first-ever trip to the CIF State Division I volleyball championship match for the Menlo-Atherton girls ended in defeat as the Bears (27-8) fell to defending state champion Redondo Union, 25-16, 25-18, 25-16, on Saturday night at Santiago Canyon College in Orange.

The Bears were close a few time, getting to within 20-16 in the second set before the Sea Hawks (36-4) pulled away. The final set, however, was all Redondo Union, which held a 20-7 lead at one point.

Congratulations to the MA team. This is a great accomplishment, getting to the state finals the year after making it to the state semi finals. In a state filled with volleyball talent, this is fantastic success and the girls and coaches should be applauded.
