FINAL  1   2   3   4   5      
LEI (2-8) 25 23 12 - - 1
RAD (5-6) 20 25 15 - - 2




What a way to celebrate senior night.

Radford rallied to defeat visiting Leilehua in three sets, 20-25, 25-23, 15-12, at Jim Alegre Gymnasium Wednesday night to clinch the Oahu Interscholastic Association Western Division's final berth into the Division I playoffs.

Shaniece Steer had a double-double of 11 kills and 13 digs and Bailey Darnell added seven kills and a match-high 21 digs to help the Rams improve to 4-5 in the league standings.

Radford can capture the West's fifth seed into the 12-team tournament with a win over Campbell (4-5) next Monday.

Leilehua dropped to 2-7 with the loss and is mathematically eliminated from making the postseason. A win over the Rams would have kept the Mules alive because they would own the head-to-head tiebreaker.

Aubrianna Green had nine kills and 20 digs to lead Leilehua in the loss.
