​No CIF Sac-Joaquin Section championship trophies are coming home with San Joaquin County’s girls volleyball teams this year.But that hardly tells the whole story.Four teams reached the section semifinals. One made it all the way to the championship match, took a 2-0 lead and came within a set of winning it all before falling in five.And here’s the good news. Their seasons aren’t over. All four now have an opportunity to chase something even bigger.A CIF State championship.Start with Ripon.The Indians had already secured their fourth straight league championship and 50th consecutive Tri-Valley League victory before entering the section Division III playoffs as the No. 1 seed. They breezed through the first three rounds, only to watch a two-set championship lead slip away against Nevada Union.Heartbreaking? Absolutely. But the Indians aren’t finished.Ripon earned the No. 3 seed in the CIF State Division III tournament.Then there’s St. Mary’s.Another Tri-City Athletic League championship. Seventy-nine consecutive league victories. And a No. 3 seed in the section’s Division I bracket.The Rams’ run ended in the semifinals against Rocklin, ranked No. 11 in California by MaxPreps. Yet that defeat may have come with a silver lining.St. Mary’s is now the No. 1 seed in the CIF State Division II tournament.Escalon and Ripon Christian have similar opportunities.Both fell in their respective section semifinals, Escalon in Division IV and Ripon Christian in Division III. Now, they’ll compete in the same CIF State Division IV bracket, with Escalon seeded No. 2 and Ripon Christian No. 6.Four teams remain. Four chances to keep their seasons going.And after all four San Joaquin County teams survived the opening round Tuesday, Nov. 10, the question remains.Who has what it takes to go all the way?The next challenge comes Nov. 12 in the regional quarterfinals, followed by the semifinals Nov. 14 and regional championships Nov. 17.
