The Lakers went up against some stiff competition. They took a set off of Dakota State University and lost to Bismarck State College, North Dakota College of Science, and Minnesota State Community and Techincal College in 3. The Lakers are down a key contributor in Kenzie Lee with an injury and that gave others a great oppurtunity to earn some playing time and show how they can compete against other teams. "We definitely had some positive moments like taking a set off of Dakota State and almost one off of MSCTC. We still need to improve our efficiency and make adjustments faster if we want to be successful," said Coach Erdman.
