Three high school volleyball teams in the city were in action Tuesday as the district tournament semifinals took place around the state.

In the Class 2 Distrcit 16 tournament at Lawson, the semifinals and championship all took place Tuesday and the Bishop LeBlond Golden Eagles won the district title.

LeBlond swept Lawson in the semifinals 25-22, 25-19 and then played top-seeded Mid-Buchanan in the championship.  The Dragons defeated East Buchanan in their semifinal game, 25-21, 23-25, 25-23.  Bishop LeBlond rallied in the title game after losing the first set 25-20 to win the next two 25-22 and 25-17.

The Eagles improve to 25-7-2 and they’ll play in the Class 2 Sectionals on Saturday.  St. Paul Lutheran in Concordia will host the Sectional, but LeBlond will play the winner of the Class 2 District 13 tournament.  That tournament will be completed Wednesday as they play the semifinals and championship on the same night.

At Cameron in the Class 3 District 16 semifinals Tuesday, the Lafayette Fighting Irish advanced to the championship game with a win over Savannah in three sets, 25-20, 21-25, 25-22.  Lafayette will play Chillicothe for the district title as the Hornets outlasted Benton in three sets, 25-19, 20-25, 25-22, in the other semifinal.
