The Comets beat Poynette 25-17, 25-12, 18-25 and defeated Cambria-Friesland 25-10, 25-13, 25-22.

Albany along with Darlington, Black Hawk, Juda and Monticello will be in action at the Six Rivers Jamboree tournament on Saturday in Monticello.

"That will be a tell tale for me as far as what conference will bring for us," Wunschel said. "I think they know what to keep doing to have success."
