The New Rockford- Sheyenne (NR-S) girls volleyball team entered the Super Region 4 Tournament in Devils Lake as the #3 seed. In quar-terfinal round action, they volleyed against Benson County in the night-cap on Monday, Nov. 5. The Rockets quickly swept the Wildcats in three straight sets with scores of 25-20, 25-17 and 25-19. With the win, NR-S earned a spot in the semifinals on Tuesday, Nov. 6, where they took on the #2 seed North Star Bearcats. The Rockets really battled, but the experienced Bearcats pulled away

during each set to defeat the Rockets three sets to zero. The set scores were 25-13, 25-16 and 25-11. Net violations and unforced errors for the Rockets made a big difference in the contest. The Rockets played in the third place game against Rolla after press time on Thursday. Read the high-lights and stats from that game in the next issue.
