The DC volleyball team had its toughest home match of the season as it hosted Wright County Conference opponent Annandale Oct. 2.
Although the Chargers had to do things the hard way at times, the teams’ effort paid off in the end as they played their first game five this year and won to get past the Cardinals 3-2.
DC was able to take a quick lead in the games winning 25-15 and 26-24, but the momentum shifted towards Annandale and the Cardinals evened the match with two wins of 25-19.
That brought about DC’s first five-game match this season, and the Chargers pulled it off with a 15-11 win.

Inconsistency plagued the Charger football team (2-3, 1-3 WCC) on both sides of the ball as it fell to Litchfield 33-20, Sept. 26 at Dassel-Cokato High School.
At times, the team seemed to be riding a high streak, as the defense created turnovers and DC quarterback Andy Haataja moved the ball through the air towards the Dragon end zone.
At other times, however, the Charger offense was stagnant, incapable of moving the ball, and the defense was out of place, giving up a pair of 73-yard touchdown runs.
It was a game full of high highs, and low lows, but the lows were simply too much for the Chargers to fight back from.
