Winchester Dominates Arlington in Straight Sets

The Winchester boys’ volleyball team continued their strong season with a commanding 3–0 victory over Arlington on the road, marking their second win against the team this season.

While the full box score can be found on MaxPreps or the team’s Instagram page (though not all posts may be fully accurate), the on-court performance spoke volumes — with contributions coming from nearly every player.

Libero Ethan Lubomerski had a standout night, anchoring the defense with strong passing and an aggressive serving strategy.

Middle blocker Bryan Jiang made his presence felt with a string of powerful kills and key blocks, helping shut down Arlington’s attacks. Fellow middle Eliot also contributed at the net, adding timely blocks.

Tuto, praised by teammates as the team’s most consistent performer and best all-around athlete, once again delivered across the board — scoring in multiple ways and showing smart decision-making at the net.

Setter and energy leader Bryan Lin played a pivotal emotional role, celebrating every point with intensity and fire that lifted the entire team’s momentum. Julien added key kills in the second set, helping to maintain the team’s rhythm during crucial stretches.

Bench players Ben and Hoaran also stepped up as spot servers, delivering under pressure and helping maintain the team’s advantage.
