COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A clean sweep.

The Thompson Valley volleyball team was the only bunch to sweep a state title match on Saturday night at Broadmoor World Arena, taking down Cheyenne Mountain in three sets to claim the 4A crown. 

The state championship was the first in program history and came in dominant fashion. The Eagles won the three sets by scores of 26-24, 25-21 and 25-21.
