“A GREAT WIN!!!” Wiensch shared after things were over at Bloomer. “It feels great to beat the only undefeated team left on conference! We played our hearts out and wanted to win. The girls played together and pushed through being down in some sets to pull out a win!!! They were so excited and were constantly cheering each other on as the night went. They stuck together and played as a family.”
