A tough test is passed

It looked like another day at the office for the Grantsburg Girls volleyball team, but what looked like another easy three set victory turned out to be an exciting three set victory for the lady Pirates.

The Colfax Vikings dropped the first two sets to the Pirates 25-15, 25-14, but the third set saw the Vikings ahead by as much as 5 and holding onto a lead until Grantsburg tied it up at 22-22. Then Grantsburg got three straight points and won 25-22.

It was an exciting finish for the Pirates and they showed the Grantsburg partisan crowd that they are able to overcome a deficit, which they haven’t played with very often this season.

So Grantsburg continues to dominate the Regional tournament claiming their 16th straight championship.

Now onto Cameron where Grantsburg will again lock horns with rival Washburn. In the past ten years of Grantsburg volleyball, Washburn has ended the Pirate season three times.
