Mayville, N.D. - Mayville State Comet Volleyball hosted the University of Winnipeg Wesmen Friday and Saturday for a non-conference match up.

Friday night, the Comet Volleyball players parents were recognized to kick off the Farmers Bowl and Homecoming festivities. 

Unfortunately, a fast paced Winnipeg team would take the Comets in 3 sets, both days. 

"This weekend, I think we struggled to make adjustments in the moment. There were good moments, but we struggled to build momentum and string it all together," said head coach Katie Aasen. "Playing the same team twice in a row was a mental battle that we will continue to work on."

Friday: L 0-3 (18-25, 19-25, 12-25)

The Wesmen led the Comets in every category as Mayville State struggled to get into any type of rhythm.
