The Golden Eagles' win in their last home game of the season helped earn them home court advantage for the play-off game on Monday.

The Tower-Soudan Golden Eagles pumped up the action during their last regular home game of the season, beating Cotton 3-2 in front of a roaring crowd. The team, dressed in pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, handed out pink bracelets and mini-volleyballs to the crowd. Student council members sold “pink” concessions, and a portion of all proceeds was donated for breast cancer research. More online at www.timberjay.com.

Volleyball coach Jodi Rogers-Reichensperger was honored before the game, with a presentation by the area’s ranking volleyball coach Loretta Rankila, flowers from husband Bob, and gifts from the volleyball team.

The girls play their first tournament game at home, on Monday, Oct. 25 at 7 p.m., against Wrenshall. The winner will play Carlton on Oct. 27, in Carlton. photos by J. Summit
