Volleyball playoff action vs. Upsala last night

An excited bunch of Jaguars take the court prior to the start of game one vs. Upsala last night...Only two of these seven players are seniors.


The Jaguars win game two...


Did you know? This is the first year since 2007 that the Jaguars volleyball team won't face Bertha-Hewitt in the sub-section finals. This year's sub-section title match is Thursday night this week at 7:00 at Pierz Healy school.

Sebeka holds a 21-7-3 overall record. They have been Park Region Champions in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011. This year they went 6-0 in the conference to edge second-place Henning (5-1, 24-5) for the title.

Sebeka's losses have been to Wadena-Deer Creek, Mayer Lutheran, Fosson, Mount-Westonka, Nevis, Henning and Bertha-Hewitt. They also tied Bertha-Hewitt in a pool play match at the Upsala tournament and Kingsland and Buffalo Lake-Hector-Stewart in pool play matches at the Bethel Showcase Tournament.

Senior Jessica Lillquist surpassed the 1,000 set assist mark as a junior, when she was voted as team MVP following the season. They lost in the sub-section semifinals to Bertha-Hewitt for the second straight year.

In 2010, the Trojans finished 20-8-5 overall and lost no seniors to graduation. Their hopes were set sky-high coming into this season.

Look what I found on Youtube!...Sebeka in action against W-DC early in September this year.


If you can't make it to Pierz tomorrow night, you can listen to all the action on Smooth Magic 107 FM of Glenwood. Or tune in online at http://www.kmgk1071.com. On Tuesday night during the Upsala match, I heard that they had over 30 listeners tune in to the coverage of the Jaguars via the internet.

Thanks, D-Mac, for the coverage!
