your daily dose of girls volleyball news & information

If you haven't rechecked the stories from this Saturday, I have modified them and added more information. It was late and I was tired after the avalanche of volleyball on Saturday night. I did need to sleep a few hours.

Meredith Nelson set an NCAA record with her 18 straight service points (it may have gone on longer, but on potential point 19 it just plopped over the net with players looking at each other).
Also during the weekend smoking of Illinois and Northwestern Kelly Bowman topped the 1000 career dig mark. From the MN Daily.
