Volleyball: 2010 Dairyland Conference Runner-Ups

There was a very close race this year for the Dairyland Conference championship. Alma and Cochrane-Fountain City are co-champions of the conference, tied with an 8-1 record (WSN list of conference titles). This left Eau Claire Immanuel tied with Melrose-Mindoro for co-runner-ups with a 7-2 record. Immanuel played Alma and CFC very early in the season, Alma in a very tight five-set match. During the fifth set Immanuel led at 16-15 and ended up losing 16-18. That means Immanuel missed being Conference Champs for the 4th year in a row by merely ONE point. Congrats to the Lancers for such a valiant effort during conference play.
