Defending champions SIM completed a clean sweep of their round robin games, defeating NUS 3-0 to advance to the final.
The win came as a huge boost for SMU, increasing their chances of qualifying for the upcoming Institute-Varsity-Polytechnic Games.
Both teams made mistakes. But NTU had fewer of them, which eventually helped them to a 3-1 win over an equally matched NUS, earning them their second straight win.
Lu Zuokun (#3) stood out on both ends, spiking and roofing his way to keep NUS ahead. Likewise, NTU counterpart Johner Tham (#5) was also similarly effective, but lacked a little support from his team-mates.
The victory was a close shave for the three-time champions, as the scores (25-15, 25-21, 25-20) were kept close in two of three sets.
The fourth edition of the Singapore Youth Olympic Festival was officially launched by Minister for Social and Family Development and president of the SNOC Tan Chuan-Jin earlier today.
