Cannon Falls at Stewartville
7:15 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 22

Cannon Falls' four-set victory over Pine Island on Sept. 17 ended a three-game skid by the No. 12-2A Bombers (6-3), a streak that included losses to No. 13-3A North St. Paul and No. 5-2A Kasson-Mantorville. Senior outside hitter Callie Loeschke racked up 10 kills and 12 digs in the win over Pine Island. 

Stewartville's marquee win came against No. 1-1A Bethlehem Academy, as the Tigers crushed the Cardinals in straight sets. Stewartville (7-3) has climbed to No. 3 in the Class 2A rankings. Senior outside hitter Jenna Willenborg, a 2014 all-state selection, posted 15 kills in the Tigers' win over Rochester Lourdes on Sept. 17. 

This is more than a Hiawatha Valley Conference matchup. It carries Class 2A, Section 1 seeding implications as well.
