Volleyball - Mondays: Beginner at SASF (Spring '26)

The first-ever Monday Night Beginner Volleyball season at SASF wrapped up this week, and #1 seed Unprotected Sets capped off a dominant campaign by claiming the championship. After going undefeated throughout the regular season, Unprotected Sets entered the playoffs as the team to beat and finished the job in impressive fashion, completing a perfect season without a single loss.

The road to the finals was a little unconventional, as Unprotected Sets advanced through the semifinals via forfeit when #4 seed Spike It Like It's Hot was unable to play. On the other side of the bracket, #3 seed The No Shows earned their spot in the championship match with a straight-set victory over #2 seed Stella, setting up a showdown against the league's undefeated top seed.

In the championship match, The No Shows put together a strong effort, but Unprotected Sets continued the form that had carried them all season long. With consistent play and timely execution, they secured a 21-16 victory in the opening set before matching that score in the second set, completing the sweep and sealing the championship.

For a league making its debut at SASF, the Beginner division featured plenty of growth, competition, and memorable moments throughout the season. Congratulations to Unprotected Sets on an undefeated championship season and a perfect finish to the inaugural year. From opening night to championship night, they proved they were the team to beat.
