The Saint Martin’svolleyball team returns to action tonight at Marcus Pavilion to take on Montana-State Billings at 7:00 PM. The Saints are currently in sixth place in the GNAC at 2-2, a half game behind the 3-2 Yellowjackets.

Saint Martin’s is coming off a split on the road last weekend. Nationally ranked Western Washington dispatched the Saints in straight sets on Thursday night and it looked bleak on Saturday down two sets to Simon Fraser, but the Saints rallied and pulled off a comeback victory in Burnaby, British Columbia to run their overall record to 4-5. Tonight’s game is just the third home game of the season for the Saints.

MSU-Billings has won six of the last eight matches but saw their three game winning steak come to an end in a thrilling three set match that went to extra points in each, 24-26, 29-31, 28-30. The Yellowjackets are 6-7 overall.
