-On September 13 the St. Cloud State volleyball team defeated the Findlay Oilers 4 sets to 1 in their first game of the Up-North Tournament.. Ella Thompson recorded a career high 16 kills and Kenzie Foley added 16 as well.  The Huskies started off hot and won the first set 25-12.  The second set was closer, but the Huskies held the Oilers off and earned a 25-20 win to go up 2 sets to none.  The third set was very tight and with a late scoring run, the Oilers won it 25-23.  The fourth set started out close, but the Oilers soon had a three point lead thanks to some stellar play from Hannah Miller.  However, Ella Thompson proceeded to score 5 kills in the set and the Huskies soon tied it up. St. Cloud State soon came away with a 3-1 win moving to 4-1 on the year.
