2008 RECAP
New Berlin United defeated Kenosha Tremper in three in the sectional final. Muskego and Franklin were the other two sectional semifinalists.
2009 RANDOM NOTES
- Franklin The Sabers graduated five seniors, four of whom were starters. This season, they'll likely turn to junior John Jablanowski, an all-conference performer in 2008, and Steven Fons, who could see action as a libero or an outside.They also return junior middle Nick Romanowski who led the Sabers in blocks with 73 -- in his first year of volleyball! Junior setter Riley Stone also returns (591 assists in 2008).
- Kenosha Bradford The Red Devils will get plenty of senior leadership from Brett Kaczmarek (first-team Southeast all-conference) and Joey Stella (second-team Southeast all-conference). An early test will be at the September 12 Neenah Invite.
- Kenosha Tremper The Trojans graduated 10 of 15 on their roster, including all-state star Tomas Goldsmith, a Rutgers University recruit, as well as four other starters. Seniors Kyle Quinn, who played opposite the past two seasons, and Kyle Bakkila, who played middle the past two seasons, are the two returnees. Key tournaments will be the September 12th Racine Invite and hosting the Trojan Invite on October 3rd.
- Muskego Junior Sam Benson was second-team Southeast all-conference last season. The Warriors will be at the Trojan Invite on October 3rd as well.
- New Berlin United The Black & Gold will once again rely heavily on senior outside Jeremy Dejno (305 kills and .428 hitting percentage in 2008) to help win them a second straight ticket to Tosa. Others to watch on a team that only graduated one senior include junior middle Mike Beeler (96 kills in 2008) senior setter Chris Pokrzwya (500 assists in 2008) and sophomore middle Nick Olson (85 kills in 2008).
- South Milwaukee We have not been able to find any information about the Rockets' upcoming season. If and when we find it, we shall share.

Sabers actually graduated 5 seniors, with 4 of those being starters. and the spelling is John Jablonowski. other than that pretty solid stuff guys, I love waking up and getting to read a new sectional preview!
It's been corrected. Thanks. Any other insights on the Sabers that should be up there?
They are also returning middle junior Nick Romanowski who led the team in blocks in his first year of volleyball (73) and also junior setter Riley Stone (591 assists)
Thanks. We'll adjust the post accordingly.
