Amidst the scorching heat of both the morning sun and the match, the Mighty Griffins of the College of Engineering and Computational Sciences (CECS) emerged as the Womenโs Volleyball champions today, September 26, defeating the Blue Marlins of the College of Hospitality and Tourism Management (CHTM) in the decider game, 25-17, to close out the championship series that stretched across two days.
In the first meeting, the Griffins narrowly escaped Set 1, 27-25, only for the Marlins to answer right back with a commanding 25-17 win in Set 2. But the tide turned in the Griffinsโ favor from there, taking Set 3, 25-16, and closing out the match, 25-22, to win the first game, scoring 3-1.
Given one more shot under the tournamentโs twice-to-beat format, the Blue Marlins opened the Game 2 strong, dominating Set 1 with 25-14. But the Griffins refused to fold, storming back to win the second set, 25-27, once again forcing a decider match.
In the final set this morning, the Griffins closed out the championship, sealing their title and completing their championship run with 25-17. | via Robelyn Asor/TheBlaze
