Sometimes it's hard to believe that the year passes so quickly as it seems like just a short time ago we watched St. Andrews take the title over St. Marys at the Center Court facility!  Boys volleyball is kicking off with the first matches to be played at the end of March.

The Coaches meeting will take place on Tuesday, March 7th at the Liberty Building at 7pm.  Any inquiries can be directed to either Bob Wood or myself.  Goodluck to all and a best of luck to all teams on a wonderful season.

This year's tournament was once again another thrilling battle to the finish!  Congratulations goes out to St. Andrews (1) for taking home this year's title in another truly close match that was anyones till the final outcome.  St. Peter & Paul (A) took the first game fairly handily and then St. Andrews (1) stormed back to take the second game of the set.

This pushed this year's final into the third and decisive game for the second year in a row and it was well fought as St. Andrews had a lead of 14-11 when St. Peter & Paul came back and tied the game at 14!  St. Andrews then took the final two points to win the game 16-14 in a thrilling finish.

In the Semi-Finals, St. Andrews battled to win both games against St. Mary's who were up in both games only to eventually loose them both although the scores were close.  St. Andrew's powerful hitting was the deciding factor in both.  St. Andrews (2) battled St. Peter & Paul in the other semi-final match and lost that one also in 2 games to set up the finals between St. Peter & Paul (1), last year's league champions and St. Andrews (1).

The All-Tournament selections were as follows:

We look forward to another thrilling season next year.
