Jills Fall in Four-Sets to UWS

SUPERIOR, Wis.-- The Northland College Volleyball team traveled west on highway 2 this evening to take on the Yellow Jackets of UW-Superior in a Upper Midwest Athletic Conference match. The Jills would put up a strong fight, but ultimately drop the match in four sets (20-25, 25-19, 23-25, 11-25).

Box Score   

After dropping the first set 25-20, the Jills used a 7 point rally half way in set 2 to take the early lead. UWS would later tie things up at 19-19 but 6 straight points for the LumberJills highlighted by an ace by Bailey Wynn and kill by Larissa Fossum would be enough for the Jills to take the second game 25-19. Back and forth swings would continue in the third game which saw the Jills fall behind 24-20. Wynn and Fossum would once again provide some offensive fire power but it wouldn't be enough as UWS took the third 25-23. UWS would continue the momentum into the fourth set, winning 25-11 and ultimately the match 3-1 over the Jills. 

Justine Litherland (14), Elizabeth Montgomery (9) and Bailey Wynn (8) would lead the Jills in kills. 

Makenna Nelson provided 38 assists on the evening, while Wynn lead the team in digs with 17. 

The Jills will continue UMAC play this Saturday (March 13th) at home as they welcome Northwestern MN. Game time is set to start at 3pm. 

Northland College is an NCAA Division III institution located in Ashland, WI. The LumberJacks and LumberJills sponsor 14 varsity sports and compete in the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference and the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
