By smashing Foinikas at home, Olympiacos got closer to earning a record number of points in the regular season, according to the website of the Volleyleague. Two rounds before the end, the runners-up won 58 of possible 60 points. The Bulgarian Todor Aleksiev topped Olympiacos, who are at 20-0, with 12 points. Christos Stefanidis also delivered 12 points, but for Foinikas. Already tomorrow, Olympiacos will start their journey to Russia for the first leg of the 2018 CEV Challenge Cup semifinals against Gazprom-Yugra Surgut.

After losing two games in a row in the national championship, PAOK returned to the winning path in an impressive way, by sweeping M.G.S. Ethinkos Alexandroupolis at home, partially 25-19, 25-18, 25-19. Since their only rivals for No.2, Foinikas, lost today, the titleholders locked the second-seed for the playoffs. The Bulgarian Nikolay Uchikov scored 12 points for PAOK. There were no double-digit players in Ethnikos for which libero Grigoris Kontostathis made 79% reception (19 digs, 68% excellent).
