Strong finish for Wrangell at Klawock volleyball tournament

Wrangell's volleyball team travelled to Klawock last week, where they faced off against Klawock's home team, Craig, Petersburg, Haines, and Metlakatla. The team had a tough start, according to Coach Alyssa Allen, but they were able to hit their stride and finish the tournament with several wins.

On Thursday, Nov. 7, Wrangell first went up in a best three-out-of-five set against Klawock. They lost the first two games at 24-14 and 25-8, respectively. The next two games were nail-biters, with Wrangell winning with scores of 25-23 and 28-26.

The final win, however, went to Klawock with a score of 15-4. Their next set of games against Craig went

similarly. Wrangell won the first game at 25-16, but then lost the next two at 25-20 and 32-30. Wrangell won the fourth game at 25-15, but lost the fifth and final game to Craig at 15-7.

Wrangell went up against Haines, Petersburg, and Metlakatla on Nov. 8. The Lady Wolves won the first two games against them, at 25-12 and 25-13. Haines took the third game with a score of 19-25, but Wrangell won the final game with a score of 25-15. The Lady Wolves' games against school rival Petersburg were close, but ended favorably. They won three games against Petersburg at 28-26, 25-23 and 25-16. Their final set of games against Metlakatla were also big wins, at 25-13, 25-18 and 25-21.

Wrangell and Petersburg will be meeting again later this week, Nov. 15 and 16, for their annual senior nights. Wrangell will also be host to Regionals this year on Nov. 18-20.

"We're looking forward to being home Friday for senior night against Petersburg," Allen wrote on the WHS Volleyball Facebook page.
