Aurora looked impressive on Saturday by picking up three wins, including a straight set win over York to win the Central Conference tournament at Crete. 

The Lady Huskies earned a spot in the finals after wins over Lexington and Holdrege for the opportunity to play York for the second time this season. 

Aurora won the first set, 25-20 before rallying in the second to win 25-20 and win first place honors. Aurora's win over York comes after the Lady Huskies fell to York in five sets Sept. 3. 

The Lady Huskies only lost one set over the course of the entire tournament when it needed three sets to defeat Columbus Lakeview Thursday. 

Aurora moves to 19-10 on the season and will compete against one of the nation's best teams -- Omaha Skutt -- Tuesday in a triangular along with Omaha Gross.
