Centennial stays perfect

Friday, May 9, 2003 | 9:49 a.m.

Thursday's boys' volleyball regionals produced little drama, with all four top seeds advancing to today's championship games.

In the Sunrise Region, Northeast top seed Chaparral dismissed Green Valley (SE-2) 25-21, 25-23, 25-20. The Cowboys will take on Southeast top seed Silverado at 5 p.m. today, as the Skyhawks handled Las Vegas (NE-2), 25-14, 25-20, 16-25, 25-18.

Centennial ran its perfect record to 20-0, as the Northwest top seed dispatched Bonanza (SW-2), one of its top competitors, 25-22, 22-25, 25-20, 25-19, to move into the Sunset Region title game. The Bulldogs face Southwest top seed Durango, which took care of Sierra Vista (SW-3), 25-18, 25-22, 28-26. The Sunset championship is at 7 p.m.

Both games are at Chaparral High School. All four teams already have qualified for next week's NIAA/U.S. Bank 4A State Tournament. The Sunset winner will take on the Sunrise runner-up, and the Sunrise winner will face the Sunrise runner-up in the semifinals.

Wheeler's team struggled, however, placing last of four teams. The team title went to Virgin Valley with a 467, holding off Boulder City by four strokes. Virgin Valley was the only team to have all five scoring players shoot under 100.
