Teams in the top echelon of girls' volleyball are en route to Las Vegas for the Durango Classic tournament
Sierra Canyon to Compete in 30th Durango Classic as Top-Ranked Team
\n\nThe 30th Durango Classic, one of the most prestigious high school volleyball tournaments in the United States, is set to kick off this Friday in Las Vegas. Among the teams scheduled to compete are Sierra Canyon, currently ranked No. 1 in the Southern Section power rankings, and seven other Southern California high school teams that are ranked in the MaxPreps national top 10, although these specific teams have not been publicly listed.
\n\nThe tournament offers a unique opportunity to see teams strengthened by players who had to sit out the first half of the season due to transfer rules. The sit-out period ended on September 13, and many of these players are expected to make a significant impact on their respective teams.
\n\nIn a separate article titled "Prep talk: Redondo Union girls volleyball rising to the occasion", the Redondo Union girls volleyball team is mentioned. Notably, Sierra Canyon knocked off Redondo Union last week, a victory that underscores the competitive nature of this year's Durango Classic.
