Vandal volleyball defends home court against the Northern Arizona University Lumberjacks to start homecoming festivities

Vandal volleyball kicked off homecoming weekend by defending their home court in the Memorial Gym against the Northern Arizona University Lumberjacks.

Idaho held down the Lumberjacks throughout Thursday night, gaining revenge after a Big Sky Conference title loss last year.

The Vandals controlled the match inside Memorial Gym beating the Lumberjacks in four sets.

The Vandals were led offensively by freshman setter Hailey Pelton and freshman middle blocker Kyra Palmbush.

Idaho Head coach Debbie Buchanan said after the match that her young team is making moves towards the top.

“We have always said that it doesn’t matter if you are a freshman or a senior, it is whoever comes out here and competes,” Buchanan said.
