Black Hills State embarks on another road trip this weekend for Friday/Saturday matches against Adams State and New Mexico Highlands.
 
The Yellow Jackets (4-16, 3-9 RMAC) hit the road in conclusion of a two-game split this past weekend, defeating Western Colorado 3-1 on Friday night then dropping their match against Fort Lewis 3-1 on Saturday night. In their game against the Mountaineers, the ladies hit their season high in team blocks (13) thanks to effective play at the net. Madison Hoopman continues to prove to be a force on the Yellow Jackets squad, as her 3.35 kills/set on the season places her in the top five in the RMAC in the stat category. Karly Marx also ranks in the top 10 in RMAC assists/set with an 8.43 clip, while Haedyn Rhoades leads the RMAC with 5.26 digs/set this season.
