Wildcats Sweep David City In Rout of Scouts
For Head Coach Matt Koehn-Fairbanks, there was some uncertainty surrounding how his St. Paul Wildcats would open the 2026 season against David City. For starters, the injury bug has taken a small bite out of the Wildcats’ lineup, forcing some changes and asking a few players to step outside their normal roles. The two teams also met earlier this summer at the Top 10 Volleyball Camp, splitting their matchup 1-1. On top of that, several underclassmen were being asked to elevate their game right out of the gate against a Scouts team that finished 22-10 a season ago and defeated St. Paul in four sets as well.
