Coronado, California – The Coronado High School girls volleyball team is experiencing notable success this season with a current record of 23 wins and 3 losses, ranking them No. 3 in the Union-Tribune poll. The poll is determined through votes from media members, coaches, club directors, and officials. This achievement comes as a result of a strategic shift initiated by head coach Adeile Ahmu, who has been at the helm since 2008.

This season, the Islanders have made significant strides, having secured victories against several top-10 ranked teams, including Westview, San Marcos, Bishop’s, and Christian. They face upcoming challenges with back-to-back matches against No. 6 Scripps Ranch and No. 2 Cathedral Catholic, highlighting the competitive nature of their schedule. The Islanders are also part of the Western League, which includes formidable opponents like Christian and No. 10 Our Lady of Peace.

The turnaround in the team’s performance can be attributed to Ahmu’s evolution from a strict coaching style to one that emphasizes mentorship and personal growth. After reflecting on past seasons and obtaining feedback from her players, she adopted a more supportive role, fostering an environment where camaraderie and enjoyment of the sport take precedence over rankings.

A key player for the Islanders is Ashlynn Proctor, a 6-foot-1 sophomore, who has proven to be instrumental in the team’s success. With an impressive tally of 636 kills on 839 attempts and a hitting percentage of .371, Proctor has established herself as a top performer in the state, currently ranked sixth-best sophomore by the Prep Dig recruiting service. In a recent match, Proctor helped lead the Islanders to a decisive victory against Christian with set scores of 25-19, 25-23, and 25-13.

Proctor’s sister, Brooke, has also made significant contributions to the team’s performance by effectively running a 5-1 offense that aids in maintaining consistency and a calm atmosphere. Additionally, standout players such as Emily Albin, a versatile sophomore, and seniors Madison Davis and Avalon Haro, who provide essential defensive support, further bolster the team’s capabilities. Junior transfers Angelique (AJ) Bernard and Savannah Browning, both previously from South Kitsap High School in Washington, have integrated well with the existing team dynamic.

The team culture is focused on individual growth and mutual support, with players acknowledging that performance rankings are merely numbers. Their collective goal is to finish the regular season ranked among the top eight teams in the county, thereby securing a spot in the Open Division playoffs.

Head coach Adeile Ahmu, who is entering her 17th season, has roots in volleyball and softball as a former athlete at Serra High School. Her long coaching career includes various clubs, highlighting her coaching acumen and commitment to developing young athletes. Ahmu has expressed her alignment with the senior class of players, emphasizing their accountability and determination to improve consistently with each practice.

As the Coronado Islanders move forward in a challenging season, their record and team dynamics have positioned them as a competitive force in high school volleyball. With their sights set on the playoffs, the team is poised to showcase their skills and growth in upcoming matches.
