BACKIn week 7, our Premier Volleyball teams competed at the Auckland Championships held at Bruce Pulman Arena. Both teams were heading into the tournament as top seeds, after winning the Auckland Premier league competition.
Our teams dominated the competition in the first two days, with both teams not dropping a set. Day 3 of the competition saw both our teams heading into the final. Our boys final was a rematch of last year, with Manurewa High also making the final. Our boys put together the most dominant performance of the season, taking down Manurewa in a 3-0 victory. The girls final was played between the top two seeds, Rangitoto and Mt Albert Grammar. Our girls went down in the first set but came out of the gates strong in the second set. The game went back and forward but our girls found some great volleyball and took the game 3-1.
These results mean we have double Auckland Championship titles for Rangitoto College once again! Congratulations to Kenai Stevenson, Joschua Schaller, Josh Perks, Kyson Norton, Kai Baatjes-Walker, Devyn Golaboski, Jasmine Rugg and Alice Bell for being selected in the tournament team. On top of this, Devyn Golaboski and Joschua Schaller were named as tournament MVP’s.
