After opening the season with a close 3-2 victory over the visiting Perham Yellowjackets, the Lady Wolverines just couldn't be beat as they breezed through their regular season schedule.
The Lady Wolverines raced to a 20-1 record by shutting out most teams in three games. Mid-State Conference foes Detroit Lakes and Pequot Lakes were the only two teams at that point to win at least one game. Along the way of the win streak, the Lady Wolverines lost to Ada-Borup 2-0 in the Hawley Tournament in which they came home with a third-place trophy. They did capture the championship at the Pierz Tournament.
A late season swoon saddled the team with three losses, including a 0-3 loss to sectional rival Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton. The Lady Wolverines finished the season at 22-4 heading into the Section 8AA playoffs.
The first-round opponent Frazee went down in three games and against Perham, the Lady Wolverines came out on top in a hard-fought game 3-1.
Fergus Falls ended WDC's season at the south sub-section championship 3-2 to deny the Lady Wolverines their fourth consecutive trip to the section finals.
