LAFAYETTE - It was not a good day for Baton Rouge area schools on the final day of the 2026 LHSAA Volleyball State Championship. Of the three schools that made it to their respective finals, all three (Dunham in Division 4, U-High in Division 3, and St. Michael in Division 2) lost.

No. 2 Dunham's 3-0 loss to No. 1 Country Day marks the Tigers' third consecutive loss in the state championship game. Dunham kept the first two sets close, but Country Day was able to run away with a decisive 25-14 win in set three to complete the sweep.

In the Division 3 Championship, No. 1 U-High's bout with No. 2 Archbishop Hannan went the full five sets. The Cubs would win a set, then Hannan would. That back-and-forth continued until Hannan won sets four and five.

The final Baton Rouge area team to compete during the day was No. 6 St. Michael in Division 2. The Warriors, running as the 6-seed, saw an upset of No. 3 St. Scholastica, but it fell short as they lost 3-0 to top-seeded St. Thomas More.
