Oakland-Craig 4-2 in last 6 matches














The Oakland-Craig Volleyball Team is 4-2 in their last six matches, losing 3-1 at Wisner-Pilger last Thursday night before losing 2-0 to Columbus Lakeview, but beating Central City and Ord 2-0 at the Boone Central Invite on Saturday, before winning 3-1 at home over Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family Tuesday night and 3-0 at Yutan Thursday night.

The Knights took set one from the Gators 25-20 before losing set two 25-16, set three 25-19, and set four 25-14.

The Vikings downed Oakland-Craig 25-23 in set one and 29-27 in set two.

The Knights downed the Bison 25-16 in sets one and two.

Oakland-Craig beat the Chanticleers 25-12 in set one and 25-17 in set two.

The Knights topped the Chieftains 25-21 in set one, 25-20 in set two, and 34-32 in set three.

Great play from Oakland-Craig lately. I've been really impressed by the Knights' play.

Oakland-Craig (8-4) hosts North Bend Central (8-5) Tuesday night.

The Knights lost 2-1 to the Tigers in the Northeast Nebraska Classic earlier this month.

North Bend Central defeated Wisner-Pilger 3-1 at home Tuesday night.

It's a battle of two teams who are playing well and have picked it up lately.

I think the match being in Oakland helps the Knights.

I fully expect the Tigers to come out and play well though.

North Bend Central is always a good tough team on the road, and I fully expect that to be the case once again Tuesday night.

I look for things to be hotly contested and heated in this match.

It's a battle of two teams with a lot of height and great athletes.

The Knights have Kennedy Benne, Bailey Helzer, Makenna Pearson, Rheanna Paul, and others.

North Bend Central has Lauren Emanuel, Megan Ortmeier, Sydney Emanuel, and others.

It should be a great battle of star power Tuesday night.

I feel these two teams are about even, and look for the match to go five sets.

I think Oakland-Craig has been playing better as of late out of the two teams, but the Tigers' win over the Gators Tuesday night has to be taken into strong consideration when analyzing this one.

The Knights have to come out amped up and ready to go Tuesday night.

I anticipate there will be a big crowd for this one, and Oakland-Craig has to get jacked and psyched up for this one.

I look for and fully expect the Knights to play well in this one.

I think fans will see two good teams go at one another Tuesday night, and play a great match.

I feel both teams are similar in many ways, and look for things to be close throughout.

I truly feel the match could go either way.

I think it simply depends on which team brings their best game, and plays the way they have in recent wins.
