MOOSEJAWTODAY.COM -- The finals are set in the Moose Jaw High Schools Athletic Association senior boys and girls volleyball leagues.

And both gold medal games will feature a team looking to repeat as city champions.

The Central Cyclones advanced to the boys final thanks to a 25-21, 25-18, 25-23 sweep over the Cornerstone Christian School Falcons at Central.
Central will face the Vanier Vikings for the title after Vanier defeated the Peacock Toilers 25-22, 25-20, 24-26, 25-21 in their semifinal.

The Cyclones will be the favourites after posting an undefeated 8-0 record and dropping only five sets all season. Central defeated Vanier (7-2) in four sets to open the regular season back on Sept. 17 and followed up with a sweep when the teams rematched on Oct. 10.

The boys final will take place on Wednesday at 8 p.m. at Sask Polytech.

The Vanier Spirits will look to win their second-straight league title after downing Briercrest Christian Academy in three games 25-13, 25-22, 25-22 in their semifinal.

The opposition in the city final will be the Cornerstone Christian School Falcons, who took a 25-20, 25-11, 25-14 win over the Peacock Toilers at Cornerstone.

Vanier had the better record in the regular season, going 9-1 and finishing in first place in the Tier I division, but Cornerstone was right on their heels and finished at 9-2. In fact, the only loss Vanier had in the campaign was to the Falcons, and recently at that -- a five-set barnburner back on Oct. 22. The Spirits won the other meeting in four games on Oct. 10.

The girls final is set for 5:50 p.m. Wednesday at Sask Polytech.
