ONTARIO, Wis. - No. 7 ranked Hillsboro was simply too much for the Plum City High School volleyball team to handle as the defending WIAA Division 4 sectional champs will get to defend their title in the finals Saturday while the Blue Devils' season comes to an end.
The Tigers, 36-11 overall, won in four games 3-1 at Brookwood High School. PC concludes its season at 25-13 overall.

Senior middle blocker Hilary Stanek also had 14 kills, fellow senior outside hitter Kelli Janecek had 12 kills. Team captain senior Ali Brey made 25 digs, freshman setter Mackenzie Sullivan had 31 assists and freshman Tasha Mitchell made three blocks.

The match begins at 7:30 p.m.
