This will be the third straight season Niagara has advanced to the OCAA championship. Last year, the Knights fell to the Fanshawe Falcons 3-1 in the bronze semi-final. Outside hitter Jeff Scott (Georgetown) led the Knights with 16 points in the loss.
The Mountaineers are the defending OCAA champions after defeating Humber College last season 3-2.
