And to wrap it all up, Rogersville took 3rd place in class 3 with a 25-18,25-13 sweep of Cape Girardeau Notre Dame. Chloe Blount leads the effort with 11 kills as the Wildcats easily avenge their split at the hands of Notre Dame from the previous day that kept them from the title game.
So four of the five Ozarks teams in Kansas City end their weekend with a win. Three third place finishes, a second place, and one state championship. Not bad at all. Now only 9 months until practice starts again.

9:55 PM – And by the narrowest of margins, Rogersville falls to the third place game tomorrow. Needing not only to win both of their sets, but also have O’Hara win both of theirs, the champs held up their end of the deal. Sweeping Villa Duchesne 25-11, 25-20. And Rogersville fought like champions as they rallied from a 21-19 deficit to win their first set 29-27. The second set was another nail biter as the two team were never separated by more than 4 points. Rogersville trailed 13-9 but closed the gap & tied numerous times even grabbing a lead at 20-19. But ND would fend them off, retake the lead, and the Wildcats couldn’t get over the hump as they were finally closed out 26-24. Great effort from Rogersville, but they’ll have to settle for a rematch with Notre Dame tomorrow in the 3rd place game.
8:55 PM – Now to catch up on Rogersville who is playing their last match right now. Their evening started off rougher as the defending state champs, KC O’Hara, swept them 25-16, 25-14. Their second match fortunes were better as the fought their way to a split with Villa Duchesne. They dropped their first set 25-16 before finally getting a win 25-19 in the second. At 1-3, the Lady Wildcats still have a shot to make the finals. Villa stands at 2-2 and is playing O’Hara right now. Rogersville is taking on 0-4 Cape Girardeau Notre Dame. If they can win both sets and O’Hara sweeps Villa, they make the final. I’ll update you soon.

When the day started, the possibility existed of six teams from the Ozarks ending up in Kansas City next weekend for the state volleyball championships. When the dust settled on the day, one Cinderella was still at the ball, one power had pulled off their biggest win of the year, and five teams were alive to see another day.
Ozark powered through rival Nixa in two sets in the quarterfinal round of class 4. Then got the win of the day as they swept state ranked and once defeated Helias out of the state tournament in two sets 25-19, 25-19.
In class 1, Osceola advanced as expected, knocking out Liberal in the sectional round, then taking out New Haven in two sets. And Winona continues their underdog run. Seeded third in their district, the Lady Wildcats won the title to face Sparta in the sectional round. They won two sets to one, then swept Miller who had earlier defeated Galena.
