Bluestreaks sweep Tigers, advance to consolation finals
ST. PAUL—The Chisholm volleyball team turned things around following their stat quarterfinal loss with a win in the consolation semifinals on Friday as the Bluestreaks took down Pine River-Backus 3-0 (25-18, 25-10, 25-21). The win puts Chisholm into Saturday’s consolation championship round where they’ll take on Mayer Lutheran. The Bluestreaks looked sluggish out of the gate Friday against the Tigers, but turned things around to play solid volleyball for the remainder of the three sets. Chisholm fell down 9-5 in the early moments of the match with PR-B’s Margaret Crimmins and Maren Lundquist scoring kills for the opposition while the Bluestreaks had already piled up a trio of attacking errors. Chisholm managed to tie things up at 11 thanks to some work in the front row by Annaka Gams and Kenzie Pender, putting them level with the Tigers with plenty more to go. A Sloen Worlie ace gave Chisholm their first lead of the set and Ashley Panichi grew the lead with a solid kill from the outside. The two teams tied again at 14, 15 and finally 18 before Chisholm took the lead for good with the Bluestreaks ending the set on a 7-0 run with Makayla Paine, Gams,

Chisholm Council hears concerns during working session
CHISHOLM—An estimated 60 people, including some members of the fire department and ambulance service, gathered at the Chisholm Senior Center this past Tuesday for a working session of the Chisholm City Council. “I would anticipate a few recommendations from staff at our next meeting,” City Administrator Ryan Pervenanze wrote in an email on Wednesday. “I think there are many areas of agreement with the council with most the important being their commitment to public safety as a whole.” “Over the next week or so I’ll work with our EMS Director and Fire Chief as well as the council to develop a path forward,” he added. The meeting was called at the October 28 regular council meeting, when the council tabled three potential resolutions to address a recommendation from McGrath Consulting that would prohibit any city employee, including part-time, volunteer to serve as an elected official. McGrath, in its report, categorized the adoption of such an ordinance as a Priority 1 recommendation, and identifies concerns regarding council oversight, supervision, perceived favoritism, and unconscious bias. Much of the discussion on Tuesday wasn’t centered around that recommendation, although feedback from those who directly addressed it appeared to question the logic behind the recommendation.
