The Knights Volleyball team traveled to #8-seeded Battle Lake and took out the Battlers in a five-game marathon tonight.

With the win, they now face #1-seed Parkers Prairie in the Sub-Section 6A-South quarterfinals. That match will be held Friday night in Parkers Prairie at 7pm.

It is WCA's first playoff win in volleyball since the 2007 season, when they finished as Sub-Section Runners-up, losing to Wheaton Area, the eventual 5th-place winner at the Class A state tournament.

Good luck Friday night to the Knights Volleyball team!
