Three Moore League teams put the Long Beach in beach volleyball on Thursday afternoon, as Wilson, Millikan and Long Beach Poly all won their CIF Southern Section semifinal matches to punch their tickets to Saturday’s CIF-SS championships.

The championships, fittingly, will be held at the Moore League’s home courts at Long Beach City College, a state of the art facility that has also hosted NCAA events for Long Beach State. The city is guaranteed a CIF-SS beach volleyball championship as Wilson will face Millikan at 11:30am in the Division 2 championship; after Poly opens things against Canyon at 10am in the Division 3 championship.

Wilson defeated Capo Valley Christian 3-2 on Thursday in the semis, while Millikan took down South Torrance 4-1. Poly went on the road and beat Linfield Christian 3-2, upsetting the No. 2 seed. Poly has won their last three matches 3-2.

We’ll have live updates and full coverage of the championship matches.
