The volleyball season came to an end on Monday night for the West Central Area lady Knights as they suffered a 3-0 loss to top-seeded Paynesville in the Section 3AA quarterfinals.  Set scores were 25-10, 25-16 and 25-16.  WCA finishes the season with a record of 22-7.

Leaders for the lady Knights were Macy Grosz (4/4 serving, 9 set assists, 10 digs), Mya Foslien (6/6 serving, 6 digs, 6 kills, 1 block), Whitney Westrom (8/9 serving, 2 aces), Halle Foslien (6/6 serving, 2 aces, 2 blocks), Elizabeth Rustan (9/9 serving, 1 ace) 5 kills), Madelyn Westrom (5/6 serving, 2 aces) and Kaitlyn Hansen (13 digs).

“It was a very rocky start to the night, as we won the coin flip and missed the first serve and then failed to execute plays off of very good passes in the first ten points of the game,” said West Central Area Head Coach Missy Foslien. “Before we knew it we were down 8-1. The girls were a little intimidated by Paynesville’s outside hitter and rightfully so, she was an amazing player. The Knights just could not answer back. Mya Foslien stepped up on offense and we had some aggressive serving by Elizabeth Rustan, Halle Foslien and Whitney Westrom, but Paynesville was all offense and it was not our night. The Knights can be proud of their season, they truly were a great team and we look forward to working hard in the off season and continuing to grow!
