Osseo at Totino-Grace
7 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 11

The Northwest Suburban Conference schedule features this showdown between No. 9-3A Osseo and a one-loss Totino-Grace squad. The Eagles dropped the opener of the Southwest MN Challenge in Marshall last weekend but recovered to win their final four matches. Concordia-St. Paul bound outside hitter Hope Schiller is a powerful force for Totino-Grace, but she’ll be challenged by a strong front row for the Orioles. Senior outside hitters Hannah Pekarek and Shiah Sanders and sophomore middle Christina Boe are the strength of coach Bill Quan’s team. Osseo has had a light schedule so far with only three matches but has recovered from a season-opening sweep to No. 4-3A Hopkins by beating Maple Grove and Elk River.
