[March 19, 2025]
The West Lincoln Broadwell Lady Wolverines won the Class 1A
Sectional Championship on Monday night in Hartsburg over the Hartem
Stags in two sets, 25-8 and 25-16 the scores.
The defending state champions have a stacked lineup full of heavy
hitters and they put down some pretty impressive kills all night
long.
Olivia Woodhall led WLB with 9 kills.
Sage Gilbert added 8 kills and Grace Bivin had 6 kills.
Kallie Courtwright led the team with 16 assists.
Olivia Woodhall was the Wolverines recipient of the IESA
Sportsmanship Award.
The Stags, who featured just two 8th graders in their lineup,
battled as hard as they could against a very talented Wolverines
team. The rest of the Stags lineup just placed 3rd in the IESA 7th
Grade Class 1A State Tournament over the weekend.
Kylee Eads had 6 kills and 5 blocks for the Stags.
Courtney Cecil was the Stags recipient of the IESA Sportsmanship
Award.
The Stags end the season with a 15-12 record.
WLB advances to the IESA 8th Grade Class 1A State Tournament in
Kankakee.

4:30 p.m. on Friday at Bishop McNamara.
The winner will play at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
