ATLANTA – The Onaway volleyball team was in a solid spot after two sets against Atlanta .

Then a disappointing third set happened, which the Cardinals couldn’t recover from.

As a result, Onaway’s campaign ended in a 3-1 MHSAA Division 4 district final loss to the host Huskies (19-25, 25-20, 6-25, 20-25) on Thursday, Nov. 6.

While the Cardinals (18-14-6) came up short, Onaway coach Steve Watson praised his team for battling all night against the high-powered Huskies (33-1-2), who won a regional title a year ago.

“The biggest thing was that I wanted us to show up,” Watson said. “We haven’t shown up enough this year, but I could sense the energy during school earlier in the day, and it was a different mindset, it felt a lot better, and I thought we had a good chance.”
