Gold will be handed out to the winners of the 2025 WPIAL boys volleyball championship matches Saturday afternoon at Peters Township.

One of them could be district title No. 23 for No. 1 North Allegheny (14-1) as the Tigers battle section rival No. 2 Seneca Valley (14-3) in the Class 3A championship match at 1 p.m.

The Tigers have accumulated the most district boys volleyball crowns, eight more than the No. 2 team on the list, old Homestead HS.

Most of the championships have comes in this century, with 16 titles since 2000.

NA has three-peated twice and on two other occasions won five in a row between 2017-2022 (no season in 2020) and captured eight straight crowns between 2007-2014.

In fact, the two-year dry spell since 2022 ties for the longest drought since 2003 after the Tigers failed to win gold in the 2015 and 2016 seasons.

Meanwhile, the Raiders are in search of their first WPIAL boys volleyball championship.

Thus far this postseason, both teams had a first-round bye.

North Allegheny has swept past Mt. Lebanon in the quarterfinals and Pine-Richland in the semifinals by scores of 3-0.

Seneca Valley defeated Canon-McMillan in the quarters, 3-0, and then edged Penn-Trafford in the semis, 3-2.

This is the rubber match of the three meetings between the teams this season.

North Allegheny won the most recent on May 8, 3-1.

In the first match, Seneca Valley handed NA its only loss on April 7, 3-2.

Joining the double class club?

Top-seeded Shaler (15-1) is looking for a third straight district title and to join an exclusive club when it goes up against No. 2 Ambridge (15-1) in the WPIAL Class 2A boys volleyball finals at 3 p.m.

The Titans captured Class 3A gold in 2023 and 2024; however, realignment this offseason dropped them to Class 2A.

From 1936-2007, there was only one classification in boys volleyball in the state.

Shaler is now trying to become the fourth school to win gold in both classes, joining Montour, Ambridge and Deer Lakes.

It won’t be easy as the Titans go up against a Bridgers program that has the fourth-most district boys volleyball titles with 10.

Ambridge is looking for its first championship this decade with its last title coming in 2019.

Shaler and Ambridge each enjoyed opening-round byes in the 2025 postseason.

The Titans have swept past Hopewell and South Fayette in the quarters and semis by scores of 3-0.

The Bridgers ousted Thomas Jefferson in the quarterfinals, 3-1, and then got past Mars in the semifinals, 3-2.

The only loss of the season for Shaler came in a nonsection match against North Allegheny.

The lone defeat for Ambridge came in a Section 4-2A match against South Fayette.
