G. Williamson again stole the show with nine kills, two ace serves, and six digs; Ickes close with eight kills and eight digs; Drueke had five kills, one ace serve, one dig and one set assist; Otte had five kills, one blocl, two digs and one set assist; Peterson had two kills, one ace serve, two blocks, two digs and 26 set assists; Asche had one ace serve and two digs; and Leisy had seven digs.

In the second match of the tri, and the girl's final match of the week, they faced Hartington-Newcastle,who have been in a tough spot for some time. They held their own against the Cards the best they could, but still fell short in the end, 2-0; 25-14 & 25-13.
