The University of Guam Triton Women's Volleyball Team, the University's varsity team, won its third straight Guam Women's College Volleyball League Championship on Oct. 6 in the UOG Calvo Field House with a 3-0 victory over the Tridents, the UOG recreation program club team.

The match sets were all played in similar fashion. The Tritons and the Tridents traded points in the early portions of each set, and with the game tied 5-5 or 6-6, the Tritons then moved to a 7-8 point lead in the middle game. The Tritons became a bit more dominant closing out each set and eventually won 25-17, 25-13 and 25-9.

The Tridents finished the season with a 4-4 record and a 13-18 record in sets, but the Tridents were 4-1 against Guam Community College and Pacific Islands University, the other two teams in the league.

The Tritons were 8-0 for the season with a 24-1 record in sets, with the lone set loss against GCC in a 25-27 set the first time both teams met in the regular season.

In three seasons, the Tritons are 24-0 in the league and have claimed all three championships. The Tridents have finished second twice in the league, while not having a team for one season.

Final GWCVL Standings:

UOG Tritons 8-0
UOG Tridents 4-4
