Orem • Lone Peak probably knew all along that beating Pleasant Grove just one more time would need to be accomplished to capture a second straight state title.

Lone Peak became the first champion in the new Class 6A classification by beating their Region 4 rivals 21-25, 25-21, 23-25, 25-20, 15-11.

Because earlier championship matches and consolation contests went long, the 6A finale ended just before midnight when a dink shot by the Knights’ Carli Berntson put an end to the marathon day.

Lone Peak (19-1) did some damage from the right side itself in the second set.
