SOMERS, Wis. – The Michigan Tech volleyball team dropped a pair of matches Saturday (Sept. 10) to wrap up play at the UW-Parkside Tournament. The Huskies fell 3-1 to St. Cloud State and 3-0 to No. 4 Minnesota Duluth.
"We had a tough day today," Tech coach Matt Jennings said. "We let the first match of the day get away from us, which was very disappointing. In both matches, we made too many unforced errors and compounded it by not executing."
St. Cloud State 3, Michigan Tech 1
Tech won the first set 25-21 before dropping the next three 25-19, 25-21, and 25-18.
Lauren Emmert led the attack with 12 kills while hitting .333. MacAulay Petersen, Mariah Sherman and Aubrey Ficek each added eight kills. Rachel Pohlod had 36 assists and nine digs. Halie Hart tallied 20 digs for her fourth straight match.
Krista Kuglin led SCSU (3-4) with 14 kills. Taylor Rollo (13) and Macy Weller (11) also added double digit kills. Marissa Kline registered 47 assists, while Clara Krenz paced the Huskies with 17 digs.
No. 4 Minnesota Duluth 3, Michigan Tech 0
The Bulldogs won 25-13, 25-17, and 25-19 to move to 8-0.
