Outstanding play from the Knights on Thursday and Saturday!
Oakland-Craig (11-5) hosts North Bend Central (10-4) Tuesday night in action that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull.
The Tigers won 3-1 at home over Wisner-Pilger Thursday night.
This should be a great match between two great teams.
This is a huge week for the Knights as they host GACC Thursday night as well.
Both matches should be super spectacular, and go 4 or 5 sets for sure.
Oakland-Craig has gone out there and won some big matches over the last week and-half-or so, all starting with last Thursday at Wisner-Pilger.
That was certainly the turning point in the season for the Knights, and has sparked big things for them.
I look for Oakland-Craig to perform great in both matches this week, and play some amazing and outstanding Volleyball.
The Knights have certainly picked things up quite a bit since going down 2-0 to Wisner-Pilger, and haven’t looked back since.
Oakland-Craig will look to continue that this week, and pick up two more humungous wins over two powerhouses.
First serve for Tuesday night’s match is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on the Bull.
