Wisner-Pilger 4-2 in last 6 matches










The Wisner-Pilger Volleyball Team went 4-1 at the Northeast Nebraska Volleyball Classic last week before losing 3-0 at West Point-Beemer Tuesday night.

The Gators beat Tekamah-Herman 2-0, but lost 2-0 to Lutheran High Northeast at the Classic last Thursday at home, and then beat Oakland-Craig, BRLD, and the Cadets 2-0 at the Classic on Saturday.

Wisner-Pilger won set one over the Tigers 25-15, and set two 25-20.

Aspin Waterman had 12 digs while Emily Hatterman recorded 13 set assists.

The Eagles downed the Gators 25-22 in sets one and two.

Waterman finished with 8 kills while Jordan Wegner totaled 7. Reagan Scholting notched 7 digs while Hatterman dished out 16 set assists.

In the first meeting between the two teams, Wisner-Pilger downed West Point-Beemer 25-19 in set one and 25-14 in set two.

Wegner registered 10 kills while Waterman had 7 kills and 7 digs. Scholting recorded 7 digs while Hatterman notched 14 digs.

The Gators defeated the Knights 25-11 in the first set, and 25-13 in the second set.

Wegner compiled 9 kills while Hatterman contributed 14 set assists.

Wisner-Pilger upended the Wolverines 25-21 in set one, and 25-16 in set two.

Waterman tallied 9 kills while Wegner had 8. Scholting finished with 10 digs while Hatterman recorded 15 set assists.

In round 2, The Cadets took set one 25-20, set two 25-22, and set three 25-15.

Wegner registered 11 kills while Scholting had 17 digs. Hatterman contributed 16 set assists.

Head Coach Jean Groth on the loss. "I thought they had a great game plan. They executed it at a high level. And then I'll go along with you we didn't have our best game tonight. They took us out of a lot of things that we wanted to do so I give all the kudos to them for doing that."

Groth's Gators are now off until next Tuesday. "Yep cause we have a little chance to rectify maybe the things that went on tonight, and push forward, and kind of be convinced that the process is just that...the process. And we got to try and figure out when people service to take us out of serve receive, with that we want to do, what's your option B, option C, and that sort of thing, and we just didn't do that very well tonight."

Wisner-Pilger (5-2) hosts North Bend Central (2-4) Tuesday night.

The Tigers are coming off a 3-1 loss at Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family Thursday night.

The Gators have to be disappointed by how they played against the Cadets on Tuesday. At the same time North Bend Central has to feel they can probably play better Volleyball too.

I think Wisner-Pilger will get back on track with a win, but the Gators have to be wary of the Tigers' ability.

North Bend Central has had some close losses this year and is a very competitive team.

The Tigers are scrappy and well coached, and this is a great battle between two very fine coaches.

There's a lot of experience on the sidelines, and I look for this to be a good chess match between Groth and Amy Sterup.

Wisner-Pilger quite honestly should be anxious and ready to get back on the floor after what took place Tuesday night.

The Gators will have had an entire week to think about what happened and fix and correct any problems that arose against the Cadets.

Wisner-Pilger has to be pumped and fired up, and must come out with a vengeance.

It's big stage big game for Wegner, and I look for her to have an exceptional match for the Gators.

I think it's going to be a good and successful night for Wisner-Pilger.

This is the only match of the week next week for the Gators so Wisner-Pilger has to make the most of it.

It being the Gators' only match too should allow Wisner-Pilger to be extra focused as if they won't be focused enough already.

Wisner-Pilger is a nice team, they just slipped up against West Point-Beemer.

The Gators have to work out any kinks in the armor, and get back on track with a victory over the Tigers Tuesday night.

A win would be really nice and good momentum heading into a loaded week the following week I would say.
