Washington Academy tops the poll for the fifth consecutive week but is the unanimous No. 1 in the Varsity Maine volleyball poll for the first time. The Raiders finish the regular season Thursday with a showdown at No. 2 York.

Scarborough has established itself as the third-best team in the state thanks to a 3-2 win over No. 6 Thornton Academy, which was tied for third with the Red Storm last week, and a 3-1 win over No. 6 Gorham.
