In the boys volleyball competition the senior class edged the sophomores 19-17 in a winner-take all final match. Earlier the seniors beat the freshmen and the juniors beat the sophomores. The sophomores then eliminated the freshmen to start their comeback. The seniors beat the juniors then the sophomores avenged their earlier loss and ousted the juniors.
