5:45 p.m.: Madison Ward with a kill and a block to account for the final two points. Cache is your 4A volleyball state champion.

5:36 p.m.: CHA putting a rally together. Down 20-16.

5:31 p.m.: Cache jumps to a 16-8 lead in the fourth… could they finish it early?

5:20 p.m.: Cache takes a 2-1 lead into the fourth game, earning a 25-18 win. The low-hanging scoreboard at center court hasn’t come into play as much as I thought it would — maybe five or six times that I’ve seen — but a couple of balls got close in the last game. You hope something like that doesn’t get in the way during a crucial point in such a big match.

5:15 p.m.: Another battle going down to the wire. Cache leading 20-17 in the third.

4:56 p.m.: The Crusaders even it up at a game apiece with a 25-17 win in the second. Looking like we’ll be going all five, a fight to the finish.

4:47 p.m.: Cache’s size has been an advantage, offensively and defensively, but CHA is a team full of fighters. They lead the second game 15-12.

4:34 p.m.: Cache finishes it off for the 1-0 win. That’s only the third game CHA has lost in the last 15 matches — 14 straight victories coming into the finals. Cache has a 13-match win streak of its own.

4:28 p.m.: Cache out to a 17-8 lead in the opener. Timeout CHA.

4:17 p.m.: Following pregame introductions, we’re now getting under way with the first game of the best-of-five Class 4A state final between Christian Heritage and Cache.
