Ironwood keeps district run going, to play Calumet in final tonight

IRONWOOD - Ironwood sure has taken to heart the old mantra that regular-season records don't matter come tournament time.

The 9-15 Red Devils have now won more district tournament games (two) than conference games (one) as they prepare to host a district final against Calumet tonight. Ironwood beat Iron Mountain 25-14, 18-25, 25-15, 25-16 in Wednesday night's MHSAA Division 3 District 65 semifinal.

"It just goes to show a record doesn't tell you what kind of team you're coming up against," Iron Mountain coach Jeanne Newberry said. "They are kind of a Cinderella team right now."

They're a team...
