UNIVERSITY CENTER, MI – The Delta Lady Pioneers volleyball team looks to get their season back on the right track after starting conference play 1-4. They had the opportunity to do just that in a thrilling game against Alpena on Wednesday, Oct. 1 on their home court in the Pioneer Gym.

Students were loud from the first serve and did a wonderful job showing support for the Pink Out! Both teams played tough and points were hard to come by. Freshman Makenzie Nearman played hard, had numerous kills and led the team in points scored as the Pioneers came away with the 3-1 win.
