However, the Little Jaguars made clear that it was not going to be that easy as they came back to win the second set 25-20.
The climactic third set was heart-stoppingly exciting and played in front of an unusually large crowd of fans from both schools, who screamed encouragement at their teams.
International led narrowly most of the game and opened a 14-10 advantage, seemingly placing victory within grasp. The Junior Jaguars steadied at that point, however, and took the next six points to win the set 16-14 and take the match.
