For the second time in school history, the Seton Saints have claimed back-to-back-to-back volleyball state championships, beating St. Ursula 25-19, 25-17, 24-26, 25-16. It was the first time two Girls Greater Catholic League schools played for the state title since 2007, when Mother of Mercy defeated Mount Notre Dame in five sets.
Somewhat poetically, Seton now moves into a tie with St. Ursula with nine state titles, the second-most in state history (MND has won 10). It is their fifth undefeated state title (1985, 1986, 1996 and 2025). The Saints also now boast a 69-match winning streak, the third longest active streak in the nation and fifth-longest in state history.

The Bulldogs finish the season with a 19-9 record and graduate just two seniors in Lola Waleskowski and Kara Cengia. During their careers, SUA never failed to advance to the regional championship, winning the 2024 D II state title and finishing as this year’s runner-up.
