1-vs-2 D-I final set at state volleyball
FAIRBORN — The match that volleyball fans around the state have been waiting for is going to happen.
No. 1-ranked Cincinnati Ursuline Academy (28-0) will face No. 2 Dublin Coffman (29-0) at 11 a.m. Saturday for the Division I state championship after both swept their semifinals on Thursday, Nov. 12, at the Nutter Center. The schools have been ranked as the top two in the state since Sept. 26.
How’s this: Combined, the teams have won 157 of 160 sets this season.
The teams got a taste of each other at an August scrimmage, hosted by Ursuline, at which Coffman participated.
“I knew right away how good they were,” said Ursuline coach Jeni Case. “I had a feeling we’d be seeing them.”
Ursuline will be trying for its third state championship after losing the title match last season to Olmsted Falls in four sets (with a first-set score of 39-37). Coffman is making its first state tournament appearance.
