Knights split final games at McCook tourney

The North Platte Community College volleyball team split its games during the second day of a tournament in McCook Saturday. 

The Knights started out with a win against Lamar Community College – beating the Lady Lopes in three sets: 25-20, 25-10 and 25-14.

 North Platte then dropped a match to Midland College. The scores were: 21-25, 21-25 and 19-25. 

"I thought we had some players step into some positions this weekend and do a good job," said NPCC Head Volleyball Coach Alexa McCall. "We still need to work on cleaning things up to stay more consistent. We served really well this weekend and passed pretty well in serve receive. We talked about executing those two things. Now, we just have to push forward and find ways to finish sets." 

That puts the Knights at 7-4 on the season. 

They will host their first home game Tuesday against McCook Community College. Action starts at 7 p.m. in the McDonald-Belton Gymnasium on the NPCC South Campus. A livestream will also be available at: npccknights.com/watch_live.
