The Bishop Lloyd Lancers captured their second straight victory with a 3 set thriller, defeating the Holy Rosary Raiders 15-8 in the final set to win the 2A Junior Volleyball title.

The Lancers started out the day strong, defeating E.S. Laird 25-10, 25-8, splitting with Holy Rosary but having the Raiders come out on top 25-23, 16-25 before beating the Jonas Samson Stingers 28-26, 25-12 to go 5-1. 

The Raiders defeated Jonas Samson in two straight 25-9, 25-15 before splitting with the Lancers. Going into their last round robin match, the Raiders had to defeat E.S. Laird in two straight in order to finish in 1st place and get the bye to the final. Unfortunately, the Sabres defeated Holy Rosary in two straight 21-25, 22-25 to set up a E.S. Laird/Holy Rosary rematch in the semi-final.
