In its second five-game match in three days, the Littlefork-Big Falls Vikings defeated Northland on the road 3-2 (21-25, 25-12, 27-25, 14-25, 15-8).
L-BF was coming off a 3-2 (26-28, 21-25, 25-17, 25-19, 15-8) victory Tuesday over Bigfork.
Whitney Junker piled up 19 kills and Haylee Gates collected 13 kills, but setter Kristi Bloom set the tone with 37 set assists.
Kelly Millerbernd added 35 digs.
Northland’s serving kept them in the contest, and proved to be decisive in the convincing victory in Game 4.
“They were a good digging team, a good serving team,” L-BF coach Kim Wimmer said. “We hit the ball hard and they were there playing defense.”
However, the Vikings took control in Game 5 and escaped with an undefeated record.
L-BF improves to 4-0 overall and to 2-0 in the Northern Lakes Conference. They return to action Monday at Blackduck.
