KIRKLAND, WA - Eagles hosted the No. 8 ranked Corban Warriors for a Friday night matchup. In a tough battle, the Eagles fell to the Warriors, 3-1.

NU came back fighting for set two. The Eagles fought for three set points and finally got the victory to even the match. Through the back and forth points, Corban proved their rank and battled to take set three. This took their momentum into the fourth set where they sealed the win.

Head Coach Steve Bain said, "Corban is a terrific squad that is talented in every phase of the game and at the end of the evening that balance was too much for us to overcome. Still, our ladies battled and continue to make progress, and I know they are excited to take the court against a very good Bushnell team tomorrow."
