The Northeast Vernon County Lady Knights volleyball team picked up a non-conference road victory Friday at Calhoun, winning in three sets 25-12 (25-20) and 25-15.

With the win, NEVC improves 3-1 overall (1-1 Golden Valley Vernon County Conference).

"The girls were determined to win," NEVC head coach Erica Mott said after the second set defeat.

Mott said junior middle hitter Mary Thoreson took charge.

"Mary told the girls, 'Keep your head held high, we got this,'" Mott said, "With that mindset, the girls came into the third set with extra momentum and won."
