Skylights upend Warriors in five

There were tense moments to say the least. But the 25th-ranked Montana State University-Northern volleyball is still unbeaten in Frontier Conference play. In front of a boisterous crowd Friday night at the Armory Gymnasium, the Skylights survived a five-set thriller with Lewis-Clark State.

Northern won the first two sets by scores of 25-23 and 25-18, but LCSC roared back to tie the match, winning the next two sets by scores of 25-19 and 25-23. However, MSU-N regrouped and won the decisive fifth set 15-9, improving to 11-0 in the Frontier and 20-4 overall.

Abby Nicholas had 23 kills and Kelsey Williams added 17 for the Skylights, who host Montana Tech Saturday night at 6 p.m.
