It was a clash of Central Lake Conference foes as the Sauk Rapids/Rice Storm took on the Tigers. The St. Cloud Tech Tigers came in as the number one team in the Conference. During the first game it looked like we had a great matchup as the Tigers would prevail 26-24. The Tigers quickly erased any hope for the Storm as they would go on and with the next two games to sweep the Storm. Nikki Meinz returned to the Storm lineup after sitting out with a banged up right knee.

It was a breakout performance for Emily Lindmeier as she dominated the front row for Sauk Rapids. The entire Storm team showed their true colors. The effort they showed was reminiscent of last year's Central Lake Conference Champion team. Seniors Ashley Carlson and Kelsey Trewick were key components in the victory for the Storm as they would get a number of aces in each game. The Storm would win 3 games to 1 and pick up a key Central Lake Conference win.

It was a great game between the #7 ranked team in Class 5A and The Sauk Rapids/Rice Storm. The Storm traveled to Tech to take on the Tigers in Central Lake Conference action. It was a defensive dogfight and Sauk Rapids would force 4 straight turnovers to start the game. Evan Warnert would come up with a interception and fumble recovery and would also score the lone touchdown of the first half. Joe Statz was the unsung hero as he would, time after time, pin the Tigers with great punts.

In the second half the Storm would continue their powerful defense. The Sauk Rapids boys were wound up and would try and get through the big tough Tech defense. They wouldn't be able to scratch any points across in regulation but the game would go into overtime. The Storm would lose on a failed two-point conversion. It was a heart-breaking loss but the game had many positives that the team can build on for the near future.

In the second half both offenses found the niche. Sauk Rapids would take a lead into the final minutes and have a chance to win. Fergus Falls, running their spread formation offense would lead a charge that the Storm could not stop. Fergus Falls would have 3 to 4 receivers on every play and Sauk Rapids didn't have enough guys to cover all of the receivers on the field. The Storm would lose in heartbreaking fashion, a hail mary prayer that was answered for the Otters.
