SOCCER

Midland Cavalry Baptist 4, Alcona 0

OSCODA–The Alcona soccer team’s postseason run came to an end on Monday with a 4-0 district loss to Midland Cavalry Baptist in Oscoda.

Midland held a 3-0 lead at halftime and added one more goal in the second half.

Alcona keeper Aidan Wrobel made 11 saves and the Tigers finished the season with a 10-6-1 record.

“We ended up with a good season. We won the league and won a district game,” Alcona coach Tim Munro said. “We graduate five seniors and we’re looking forward to next year.”

VOLLEYBALL

Beaverton 3, Onaway 0

ONAWAY–In one of its toughest tests of the season, the Onaway volleyball team came up short.

The Cardinals were swept by Beaverton–the eighth ranked in Division 3–19-25, 10-25 and 15-25 in a match where Onaway coach Steve Watson said they made two many mistakes and couldn’t rebound after a first set loss.

“There’s a reason they’re ranked. They’re a good team that doesn’t make mistakes,” Watson said.

Breya Domke led Onaway (20-13-2) with 12 kills, five aces and seven digs; Malaurie McLean had two kills, two aces and 12 digs; Jordan Larson had nine digs; Mallorie Neelis had three kills, 14 assists and 13 digs and Cloe Ehrke had eight digs.

Onaway plays at Bellaire on Tuesday and at St. Louis in a tournament on Saturday.
