The Horizon Huskies beat the Millennium High School Tigers at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in November in straight sets (25-15, 25-14, 25-15) during the 5A volleyball state championship, making the Huskies back-to-back winning champions.
Both teams had a regular season record of 16-1. The Huskies lost to Cactus Shadows in October, while the Tigers previously lost to their state championship adversary, Horizon.
This is the fourth state championship for the Huskies long-time head coach and coach of the year, Valorie McKenzie. She is in her 42nd season at Horizon and has garnered over 1,000 career wins.
