Ella Wrobel, a 6-foot-4 senior and Wisconsin recruit, took matters into her own hands. She registered seven of her match-high 19 kills in the third set, and added four consecutive aces during a decisive point run to power the second-seeded Tigers past third-seeded Benet 25-14, 18-25, 25-18 in the Class 4A Oswego Sectional semifinal. It’s Plainfield North’s first sectional final since 2014, when the program won its only sectional. Wrobel and the Tigers, who advanced to play top-seeded Metea Valley, erased the memory of a three-set loss to Waubonsie Valley in a 2019 sectional semifinal. In that match, like Monday, Plainfield North (32-6) took the first set in dominant fashion, and led in a second that got away, as the Tigers did Monday.
