Women's Volleyball Falls in Five at #22 North Park

The Big Blue women's volleyball team traveled to Chicago, Ill. on Friday, September 28 for a matchup with the 22nd ranked Vikings of North Park in a College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin contest. In a match that took all five sets to decide, North Park came away with the victory.

In the five set match, North Park took the first set 23-25, then Millikin rallied to post a 26-24 second set win. In true back-and-forth fashion, North Park was the victor in the third set 18-25 before Millikin used a convincing 25-13 fourth set win to even the score. In the deciding set, it was the Vikings who recorded the 12-15 win.

Millikin was led at the net by Kailee Itzenhuiser with 17 kills, with Addison Oyer chipping in 11 and Elle Richards adding 10. Kyra Carothers, Richards, and Emma Taylor all recorded four blocks, and Itzenhuiser and Sophia Howell led the Big Blue defensively with 19 digs apiece. Alyssa Frederking recorded 25 assists. 

North Park was led by Shamyia Collier with 16 kills and Meg Rothermel with 14. 

Millikin's weekend of tough competition is only beginning, as they travel to Whitewater, Wis. for matchups with UW-La Crosse and eighth ranked UW-Whitewater on Saturday, September 29.
