Saturday afternoon the Blues entered the holiday break on a three-game winning streak after disposing of the visiting Avalanche in four sets.
In the opening set the Blues came out hot and took the score 25-15 to take the match lead. Credit the Avalanche for bouncing back in the second set with a 25-22 victory. That momentum, however, didn’t last long. The Blues regained control of the match with another 25-15 victory in the third set before taking the match in the fourth with a 25-17 victory. They now have sole possession of third place in the standings heading into the break.
The Avalanche enter the holiday break on a three-game losing streak but remain in a three-way tie for the fourth spot in the standings. Only the top four schools advance to the PACWEST championship tournament in February, hosted by the VIU Mariners.
Both teams won’t see live PACWEST action until January 10, 2025.
