It is that time of year again – the time for tournament volleyball. Votes have been cast, tournament seeds are in and pairings are set for the one-and-done portion of the schedule.
Two Crawford County teams play in Division IV, Buckeye Central and Crestline. The Buckettes received the Willard District’s number 3 seed behind top-seeded Norwalk St. Paul and second-seeded Old Fort.
The Buckettes received a first-round bye and will play at home on Oct. 20 against the winner of the match between fourth-seeded South Central and Plymouth who is seeded 12th.
Should the Buckettes win, they will advance to the district tournament next week at Willard.
