“I didn’t think it was going to go in — I knew it was going to go in,” said BB&N coach Mike Willey. “[Kicker] Vince Snoonian works his absolute tail off, so when he’s the guy that’s standing there, and the whole thing is on his shoulders, that’s the best thing that could happen to us.”

It was the calm before the storm, before the storm.

Newton North had the big victory of the week at Needham, jumping the Rockets near the top of the Globe Top 20 girls’ volleyball poll. This week, the Tigers host No. 1 Wi******er and No. 3 Brookline in potential late-round postseason previews.

Chelmsford clinched the Merrimack Valley Conference (Division 1) title with a four-set win over Billerica, remaining undefeated. Not much left for the Lions to do, with the team looking to solidify its No. 1 seed in the D1 tournament. A matchup in Wellesley, where the Raiders just have one loss (to Newton North) is a solid test. It will be the second matchup of the two, with the Lions handling the home matchup, 3-0. Chelmsford has dropped just five sets all season, second in D1 behind Wi******er, which has won all but two.

Oliver Ames, ranked sixth, has dominated the Hockomock League, and also has just two set losses. Also in the Hock: No. 15 King Philip is proving capable of challenging higher-ranked teams. Though the Warriors lost both matches in five sets, No. 13 Franklin and No. 12 Bellingham are impressive teams to take to the max.

Records based on scores reported to the Globe through Thursday morning.
