Central Wisconsin Christian claims first gold ball with sweep of Turtle Lake
ASHWAUBENON – A state championship win doesn't happen by accident and doesn't happen without fans sitting on the edge of their seats and cheering with no regard for how their voice may sound later. For Central Wisconsin Christian, it ended with fans watching a Kiley Beer serve hit the top of the net and drop to the floor. "I try to have a lot of confidence going back (to serve), but obviously there's a lot of pressure going back there on game point," Beer said. "I knew that I could do what I trusted. I've trained for this, I've prepared for this. "When I saw it go over the tape and go over, it just hit me and it was great." Central Wisconsin Christian, the No. 2 seed in the WIAA Division 5 state tournament swept Turtle Lake (26-24, 25-23, 26-24) to win its first state championship in school history. The 80-mile journey from Central Wisconsin Christian to the Resch Center, the biggest stage the state has to offer, to now state champions, started years ago. It started long before any of the girls who took to the floor on Saturday, Nov. 7 played a point of high school volleyball.
