Northern spikers find success in second Arizona trip

To open the 2021 season, the Montana State University-Northern volleyball team spent not one but two weekends in Arizona. And the second one was quite the trip.

The Skylights started their second stint in Arizona with a patch against Park University in Gilbert, Arizona, last Thursday, where they won by scores of 19-25, 25-23, 25-21 and 25-22. It was the first of what would be a three-win trip for Northern. In that first victory, the Skylights got 12 kills and 12 digs from Rylee Burmester, while Emily Feller had 30 assists and Marlee Bender tallied a pair of blocks.
