The Lady Cubs went 2-2 on the day, earning wins against Remington and Crest in two sets each. The Lady Cubs dropped a closely contested match to Yates Center by scores of 16-25, 25-20, and 22-25. Alana Johson led the way for Humboldt with 29 assists. Emma Johnson accumulated 19 digs. Jessica Myers starred in attack with 20 kills, and Jada Dangerfield chipped in 11 kills. 

“We let the Yates Center game slip away from us,” head coach Terry Meadows said. “We let a couple points bring us down and could not recover. Overall, I was pleased with our ability to stay in rallies longer, and with our back-row defense.”
