Morgan Meade pounded 11 kills, and Carmel Catholic's girls volleyball team made team history Thursday night, despite missing one of its star players.

By defeating host St. Viator 25-14, 25-14, the Corsairs captured a share of the East Suburban Catholic Conference North Division championship.

It's the first ESCC title for Carmel, which improved to 29-5 overall, while finishing 6-2 in the division. Nazareth also finished 6-2.

Carmel senior hitter Grace Schofield sprained her ankle in warm-ups and wasn't able to play. Elizabeth Tworek helped fill the Corsairs' void by rocking 8 kills.

"The team played well as a whole," coach David Pazely said.

Carmels plays Libertyville tonight.

"Schofield will be a game-time decision," Pazely said. "She will likely be ready for the playoffs next week."

Huntley d. Grayslake Central: Taylor O'Neill had 4 kills for the Rams, who lost the Fox Valley Conference crossover 25-15, 25-16.

Hayley Peterson and Allie Daul added 3 kills apiece for Grayslake Central (20-15). Juliana Frusolone was 50-of-50 setting with 13 assists and chipped in 7 digs.
