The Osakis volleyball team was in its first season back playing the postseason at the Class AA level after being part of the Class A field in recent years.
That Silverstreaks came into the Section 6AA tournament on Thursday as the No. 11 seed as they went to 6th-seeded Milaca trying to extend their season. Instead, it was the Wolves who advanced to play third-seeded Staples-Motley in the quarterfinals on Nov. 1.
Milaca (22-6) ended Osakis’ season with a 12-16 overall record. The Wolves swept the Silverstreaks around very close first and third sets where Milaca prevailed by 26-24, 25-15 and 27-25 finals.
Alexis Johanson finished off her career with a team-high 8 kills for Osakis. Madison Lipke added 6 kills, and Josee Hartshorn and Kiley Kranz each had 5 apiece. Greta Faber dug up 35 balls, and Hartshorn dished out 24 assists.
It was the final match for six seniors who were a big part of this Silverstreaks team in Lara Drum, Lexi Froemming, Mackenzie Holmquist, Alexis Johanson, Hayleigh Niehoff and Kali Schoeck.
