Oakland-Craig wins final regular season contest over BRLD; falls to GACC in Sub-Districts
The Oakland-Craig Volleyball Team swept BRLD 3-0 at home Thursday night to end the regular season before falling 3-0 in the first round of sub-districts to GACC in C2-5 at Pender Monday night.
The Knights took set one 25-23 from the Wolverines, and won sets two and three 25-18.
The Bluejays won set one 25-17, and sets two and three 25-18.
Bailey Helzer and Ashten Rennerfeldt paced the Knights with 7 kills apiece.
Tough ending to the season for Oakland-Craig after catching fire at the end of the regular season.
The Knights end the year at 13-19.
Oakland-Craig went 7-6 in their last 13 matches, and I think that's something they can build on heading into next season.
A lot of the losses incurred by the Knights were close and competitive as well.
Seniors lost to graduation include Dacey Nelson, Jena Gardeman, and Aileen Quintero.
There is a lot of talent returning next year though, including the likes of Helzer, Makenna Pearson, and Kennedy Benne.
Oakland-Craig has a lot of promise and potential in the future they just have to work hard in the offseason and play up to their potential.
I think what the Knights did at the end of this season will definitely carry over into next year.
I look for Oakland-Craig to have a very good offseason, and basketball season this year as well.
The Knights have to be excited for Basketball this year, but get excited for Volleyball next year when the season rolls around.
Oakland-Craig has to have big dreams and aspirations for their season, and go out there and work hard between now and next August.
The Knights have to be gym rats, and must play the sport as much as possible.
Oakland-Craig has to workout and lift as much as possible as well.
The Knights have to get quicker, bigger, and stronger.
Doing agility drills will be big for Oakland-Craig as well, in my opinion.
The Knights have to be active in summer leagues and camps, open gyms, and other team related activities.
Spending time together and hanging out and doing team bonding activities is all a part of it too.
Oakland-Craig has to comeback stronger than ever next year and be ready to go full tilt in 2019.
The Knights need to enjoy their basketball and spring sports seasons, but be working on Volleyball as much as possible in the meantime.
