"We've gone to this tournament since before I started coaching for HL-O and we have never won both of the first matches on Friday to make it to the championship bracket," said HL-O/F head coach Trista Rhubee. "The team played phenomenal against Bloomington Jeffers and Maple Grove, both which are Class AAAA schools. ... I was impressed with the improvements that we made over the course of the tournament, particularly in blocking, serve receive and setting."
The Coyotes finished eighth out of 32 teams.
