That a new champion would be crowned was the one guarantee going into the Class 4A volleyball state championship match Saturday night at the Denver Coliseum.
Class 4A's Elizabeth and 2A's Yuma -- ninth-seeded, both -- were the first two teams to punch their tickets to Saturday's semifinals during the first day of the state volleyball tournaments at the Denver Coliseum on Friday.
For the second consecutive week, there is a new team leading CHSAANow.com's Class 5A volleyball poll. This week, Grandview will take its turn at the top.
