If the first meeting between the two teams is any indication, this will be an epic tournament final.
The regular season champion Chieftains will put their 13 game league winning streak on the line today, hosting surging Seaside.
While Palma has already earned one of the two automatic playoff spots for the first time in school history, and no worse than a share of the MBL title, Seaside can clinch both with a win.
The Spartans were impressive in sweeping Alisal on Wednesday, as hitters DeShawn Irving and Kevin Tran fed off Colby Ostberg's sets for a combine 31 kills.
Palma, whose last league loss occurred on March 11, defeated Monterey in four games as Jeremy Dicks moved the ball around to the likes of Jean-Luc Adam and Toby Wisner.
Who picks up more balls on defense to set up the offense could dictate the tempo.
