From the start, it looked like the Matilda Torres Toros girls volleyball team was going to come away with a three-set sweep over the visiting Pacheco Panthers from Los Banos.

However, the Toros couldn’t hold onto a 22-16 third set lead and the Panthers came all the way back to win the fifth set 15-13 to take the match.

The match was even throughout. Pacheco won the match by a combined 108-105. However, it was the feeling of losing a late eight-point lead that will linger over the Toros.
