The Crescenta Valley girls' team posts 538 points to beat Apaches' 365, despite claiming just two first-place finishes. Both squads finish as Pacific League champions.

"They wanted to make a statement not only that they were the best team this year, but that they were the best team in the history of the Pacific League," Crescenta Valley boys' Coach Jan Sakonju said.

Seo, Wojciechowski, Thai and Chi also take the 200 freestyle in 1:26.19.

Chi also captures the 50 freestyle in 21.94 and 100 freestyle in 48.07, while Thai, Jake Ksendov, Andrew De Jong and Rusty Blakey win the 200-medley relay in 1:38.80. Wojciechowski, Blakey, De Jong and Seo wins the 400-freestyle relay in 3:12.46.

The Falcons girls get first-place finishes from Icheva in the 50 freestyle in 24.85 and Ingalla in the 100 breaststroke in 1:11.63.

Though the boys' volleyball team came up short in making it to the postseason, the Falcons go out winners, claiming their biggest victory of the season, defeating archrival Arcadia, 25-20, 13-25, 25-14, 25-22 in the teams' Pacific League finale.

Led by the likes of Logan Shapiro and Mitch Collins, the Falcons went 11-15 and 3-5 in league.

• May 6 — Back-to-back doubles by Cam Silva and Tyler Pollak equate to a walk-off win in the 10th inning of a marathon Pacific League win over Pasadena for the baseball team.
