The biggest girls volleyball rivalry commenced once again Tuesday night as the Academy Cougars held off the Notre Dame Royals 25-11, 25-13, 21-25, 26-24 in the IIAAG Girls Volleyball League in Hagatna.

While the St. John’s Knights are rolling at 6-0 and the Harvest Eagles right behind at 5-1, the two archrivals were battling it out in the middle of the standings to stay relevant.

With the win, the Cougars stay in 3rd place in the league at 4-2 while the Royals struggles continue at 2-4.
