NYC top 15 girls volleyball teams: week 7

No. 1 St. Francis Prep (10-1)

The Terriers six-year unbeaten reign in Brooklyn/Queens came to a stunning end in a five-set loss to rival Archbishop Molloy last week. St. Francis Prep, though, bounced back quickly, beating the Stanners in three to earn the top seed in the B/Q Diocesan tournament.

Next: B/Q Diocesan semifinals @ Molloy (Thursday, 4 p.m.)

No. 2 Archbishop Molloy (9-2)

The Stanners might not have the No. 1 seed in the Brooklyn/Queens Diocesan tournament, but they enter the postseason with the confidence they can beat the mighty Terriers, which they finally did last week.

Next: B/Q Diocesan semifinals @Molloy (5:15 p.m.)

No. 3 Stuyvesant (10-0)

Lisa Qiu had 10 assists and three digs and Melissa Chin added four digs and three kills to lead the Vixens to a 25-5, 25-8 win against Washington Irving Monday, moving closer to a 13th straight undefeated division title.

Next: Lab Museum (Tuesday, 5:30 p.m.)

No. 4 Cardozo (8-0)

The Judges reached the semifinals of the Francis Lewis tournament Saturday and beat St. Francis Prep in a tiebreaker to get there. That came after an impressive league win against the Patriots last Monday.

Next: Queens HS of Teaching (Nov. 1, 4:30 p.m.)

No. 5 Brearley (9-0)

Now the fun begins for undefeated Brearley, which is looking to defending its NYSAISAA title. That starts with an AAIS semifinal Thursday.

Next: AAIS semifinals @ Nightingdale-Bamford (Thursday, 4:30 p.m.)

No. 6 Fontbonne Hall (6-4)

The Bonnies record is misleading – their four defeats came in tight matches against St. Francis Prep and Archbishop Molloy. If Fontbonne can knock off Brooklyn rival Bishop Kearney Tuesday, that would set up another classic against the Stanners.

Next: B/Q Diocesan quarterfinals @ Bishop Kearney (Tuesday, 5:15 p.m.)

No. 7 Susan Wagner (10-0)

Junior Kristine Ciurcina was named to the all-tournament team as Wagner finished second in the Tottenville Robert Kronisch tournament Sunday, losing to Fontbonne in the final. On Monday, Jia Sha had 11 digs and Julia Bogdan had eight kills against Curtis.
