Pacific Grove volleyball

 Pump the breaks before going off the ledge.
 It's just three matches.
 Still, the Breakers are 3-0 for the first time in 12 years -- or the last time the program won a share of a league title.
 If you're counting, and some people are, Pacific Grove has already exceeded last season's entire win total (two) in the first two weeks of the season.
 For a program that was winless last year in the Cypress Division, this has been an abrupt turnaround in a short time frame.
 The Breakers haven't enjoyed a winning season since 2007, while enduring two winless campaigns in league play.
 Pacific Grove, who competes this weekend in the Watsonville Tournament, has wins over Monterey, who went to the postseason last fall, and Oakwood, who was 10-2 in the Santa Lucia Division.
 A reshaped lineup has responded with Summer Sebok and Leah Tullius both recording 15 kills in a win over Gonzales on Wednesday.
 Setter Maia Schlinig has worked the ball around the floor, building chemistry with a trio of hitters, including holdover Melina Macias-Perez.
 Defensively, Juliana Aliotti has been outstanding in the back row, providing that pass that ignites the Breakers attack.
