Thursday saw the Notre Dame
Royals defeat the St. Johns Knights in straight sets, but the Royals
would have to wait two days before they knew who they would be taking
on in the IIAAG Boys Volleyball Championship game on Tuesday, May
22.
Due to the power outage the George Washington, Simon Sanchez game was
postponed until Saturday evening, and the game was well worth the wait
as the Simon Sanchez Sharks barely squeezed past the George Washington
Geckos in three sets winning 25-17, 25-27, and 15-10.
Dioor Jones would play a huge part in the Sharks win as he has done all
season as the Sharks had to fight back in the third set after watching
the second set slip through their fingers and fall to the Geckos.
The Geckos would have the momentum in the third set and would be up 8-4.
Dioor Jones would lead the comeback as the Sharks won 15-10. The Sharks
now move on to face the Notre Dame Royals for the Championship.
The Royals are no strangers to the Sharks as Notre Dame handed the Sharks
their only loss of the season.
The Royals finished the season with two losses, one coming at the hands
of the George Washington Geckos who will now take on the St. Johns
Knights for third place on Tuesday at the University of Guam field house.
The Sharks will go in hungry looking for their revenge and to become the
IIAAG Boys Volleyball Champions but the Royals are a formidable
opponent who know the Sharks very well. The game is sure to be one of
the best volleyball games this year.
