Delta had an eventful week of volleyball last week, playing three conference games.

On Tuesday, the Huskies hosted the Hutchison Hawks on their home court. The match featured exciting, closely contested sets, with both teams winning two sets apiece. In the deciding fifth set, the Huskies pulled out the victory with a 15–11 win.

The Huskies then traveled to Valdez to take on the second-seeded Buccaneers. Unfortunately, Delta was unable to secure a win in either of the Friday or Saturday matches.

The Huskies are currently seeded third in the Aurora Conference. They will return home for a fun matchup against the high school boys on Oct. 22, followed by Senior Night on Monday, Oct. 26, when they take on the Glennallen Panthers.

Regionals are set for November 6-7 at Hutchison High School.

Go Huskies!
