SOUTH BERWICK (NEWS CENTER Maine) -- The Falmouth girls' volleyball team earned its second state title Saturday with a 3-0 win over Gorham at host site Marshwood High School.
The #1/#2 matchup was Gorham's first shot a volleyball state title. Falmouth came out strong, winning in three sets: 25-18, 25-17, 25-16.
"It didn't really hit me at first and then everyone just rushed the court and we kind of fell down we were so excited, and it was just crazy," said sophomore Katie Phillips. "We had so many people supporting us and especially losing last year, we just wanted it so much more this year."
Falmouth's win is the team's second state championship. The girls were runners-up in 2017, falling to Cape Elizabeth in the Class B championship. The Yachtsmen beat Scarborough in 2013, 3-1.
Annika Hester showed off her strong spike for the Yachtsmen, burying points throughout the game.
