Thief River Falls -
The Northland Community & Technical College volleyball team wrapped up its regular season at home Friday night with a dominant three-set sweep over Minnesota North College - Vermilion. The Pioneers raced to a 25-11 decision in the opening set and were almost as efficient in the second set with a 25-13 win. The Ironhawks made things interesting for a while in the third set before the Pioneers pulled away late for a 25-18 win.
Friday night was sophomore night and parents night, and the Northland volleyball team honored both groups at the conclusion of the match. Among the sophomores to play their final matches in the Northland gym were third-years sophomores
Madison Witte and
Madison Paulson,
