ABOUT THE DIVISION 3 FIELD: Cameron is back in the tournament for the first time since 1983 and for the third time overall. The Comets' previous two experiences came in Class C during the pool-play era. They swept Aquinas in three sets to get back to the State Tournament for the first time in 31 years. They tied Division 4 qualifier Clayton for the title of the Central Lakeland Conference this year. Marathon will be making its second tournament appearance and its first since 2007 when the Red Raiders fell in the semifinals. They earn the trip to Green Bay this year by defeating Lourdes Academy in the sectional final played in Marathon. The Red Raiders finished the regular season as runners-up in the South Division of the Marawood Conference. Howards Grove is also experiencing the State Tournament for the second time. The last time the Tigers qualified was during the pool-play era in 1976. This year, they tied for the Central Lakeshore Conference crown and advance to the semifinals with a victory over Lake Country Lutheran in the Sheboygan South Sectional final. Waterloo has qualified for the State Tournament for the first time following the Pirates' three-set sweep of Wisconsin Heights in the Brodhead Sectional final. They are the champions in the South Division of the Capitol Conference.
