Eagan at Lakeville South
7 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 17

Lakeville South (5-1) is coming off straight-set wins over Minneota, No. 14-1A Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa and No. 15-3A Chaska in the Southwest Minnesota Challenge tournament. Cougars junior outside hitter Jenny Mosser has been as good as advertised, including a highlight-reel performance in which she finished with 30 kills in a loss to Eden Prairie on Sept. 8.

For Eagan (6-1), this game carries serious sway in South Suburban Conference play. The No. 2-3A Wildcats haven’t lost a regular-season match to the Cougars since Oct. 18, 2011, but dropped one to Lakeville South in the Apple Valley Tournament last season. Look for the Wildcats and Cougars to battle it out in this league clash.
