Prep volleyball: Vikings reach SJS finals for first time in 40 years

FAIRFIELD — For the first time in 40 years, the Vanden Vikings are in the finals of a Sac-Joaquin Section volleyball tournament.

While it’s not a shock as the Vikings – who were the Division III runners-up in 1978, and also took second place in the Division I bracket in 1975 – are seeded second in the DIII bracket, it is essentially uncharted territory for the program.
