Owatonna Volleyball to Host Playoff Match Wednesday; KRFO Talks with the Seniors

Three Owatonna High School seniors get another chance to play in their home gym Wednesday night in the first round of the Section 1AAA volleyball tournament.

No. 6 seed Owatonna opens at home versus No. 11 seed Rochester John Marshall on October 28 at 7PM. Coverage will be heard on KRFO AM 1390. The winner travels to No. 3 seed Farmington on Friday night. Owatonna (16-11) swept the Rockets (9-17) in Rochester in late September. OHS lost 2-1 to Farmington (16-10) during a weekend tournament earlier this season.

Top five-ranked Lakeville South (23-5) is the top seed in the section. Big Nine champ Rochester Mayo (24-2) is the second seed.

KRFO Radio recently caught up with seniors Carli Langeland, Karissa Hilstad and Elise Oppegard. Our interview was held in a round-table style.
