Junior high football wraps up its season this week, and the high school volleyball team will play in the TVL tournament on Saturday. A reminder, that tournament will be played at Blue Valley, which is in contrast to what the printed school calendar says.
Here are the activities for the week!
Today marks the final day of junior volleyball at Onaga for thirteen 8th graders, as they get ready for the Oregon Trail League Tournament this morning. The girls enter 5-12 on the season and will be seeded #4 in the 6-team tournament.
Games get underway at 9:00am with pool play action, but the girls won't play until 10:00 am when they take on #5 seeded Axtell who the Buffaloes just beat on Thursday night. They will then turn around and play #1 seed Centralia at 11:00am.
After pool play there will be a 15 minute break, then bracket play will begin. If the girls finish in the top two of their pool, they will take on one of the top two finishers from the other pool for a chance to punch their ticket to the championship game.
Good luck today girls! GO BUFFALOES!!!
