Blue and gold teams were formed and each eight-man roster was a mixture of players from different schools, giving teammates a unique opportunity to play against each other.
Aguila and Mathews played on the blue team, piloted by Beverly Hills Coach Jonathan Ramin. Aguilera was on the gold team, guided by Windward Coach Michelle McGuire. The gold team won in five sets.
