Ironwood's Laney Osterholm (8) and Iron Mountain's Annslee Runsat meet at the net during Wednesday night's district semifinal at John Krznarich Gym in Ironwood.
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...
