The Badgers tallied a win and a loss on the weekend dropping their opening match 3-0 to visiting Me.-Fort Kent and then picking up an exciting 3-1 victory over Paul Smith’s. The split sees the Badgers move to 2-8 overall.

The Badgers started slow in their first set of the day, but picked up as the second two sets went on. Despite the loss, sophomore Breanna Laughlin and junior Andrea Williams lead the way at net posting six and four kills respectively.
Madeline Pritchard served up one ace for the Badgers from the back line.

The Badgers, warmed up after their first match, started off strong against the Bobcats. Johnson took the first set handily, but battled to win the second set, thanks in part to Williams’ three block solos. The Badgers lost a little momentum in the third set and saw Paul Smith’s put away 6 kills in a row to take the set. Not interested in giving up the match, Johnson made use of nine of Laughlin’s 18 kills to take the fourth set quickly.
