The Vikings defeated Bayport-Blue Point for the Long Island title.

SEAFORD, NY — It's on to the state championship tournament for the Seaford High School Girls' Varsity Volleyball team.

After deposing North Shore in the Nassau County final last week, the Vikings outlasted Bayport-Blue Point in a five-set thriller. Seaford erased a championship point by Bayport and took the next two points, winning the final set, 17-15. That game was played on Nov. 11.

It's only the second time in school history that Seaford won the Long Island championship.
