Grantsburg heading to state

After winning an anti-climactic match, the Grantsburg volleyball team is heading back to state.

The Pirates won easily 25-14, 25-6, 25-12. At times it looked like the Pirates opponent, Melrose-Mindoro, would rather have been trick-or-treating than playing the high flying Pirates.

Grantsburg looked good all night and did not fall into a trap after such an emotional and physical win over the Washburn Castle Guards just a couple nights ago.

That sets up a meeting with unranked Laconia in the state semi-final. I’ll post more about Laconia at another time.

In other news… Wisconsin Heights, last year’s champion, was defeated tonight by Cuba City. It was a three set sweep by Cuba City which is a little surprising considering Wisconsin Heights was ranked fourth in the state while Cuba City was ranked second.
