The La Jolla High boys volleyball team season came to an end last Thursday evening in the Southern California Division II Regional Semifinals. Despite great efforts from Tyler Heap and Matt Palatella, La Jolla dropped a 25-13, 25-18, 21-25, 25-21 decision to Santa Ana Mater Dei. Heap, who is headed to BYU next season, finished with 10 kills and four aces, while Palatella recorded eight kills. La Jolla had advanced to the semifinals following its 25-21, 25-23, 21-25, 29-27 victory over Oak Park Tuesday, June 2. Heap finished with 13 kills and 18 assists, Jack Latta had 11 kills and seven blocks, Max Greenberg had 18 assists and John Walsh had 14 digs.
