The Luxemburg-Casco volleyball team finished in the middle of the pack of the Charger Challenge in Milwaukee over the weekend, but it came away with some valuable experience for the season's stretch run.

The team came in 17th place out of 32 teams, facing the bulk of their problems in pool play. The Spartans beat Wisconsin Lutheran 25-14, 25-21 before losing to Sauk Prairie 17-25, 25-12, 13-15 and Arrowhead 17-25, 25-20, 10-15. They would rebound in the bronze bracket, beating Germantown 25-16, 25-12 and Waukesha West 19-25, 25-20, 15-11. 

"It was a good weekend, this tournament always has some of the best teams in the state and I loved the fight and resiliency our team showed this weekend," said head coach Jeff Frey. "We got tested in all of our matches and we got better which is why you come to a tournament like this." 

Volleyball action involving Gibraltar, Algoma, and Kewaunee was not reported.
