The NDSU volleyball team had a tough start to the season, dropping their first two games to Louisville and Ohio last weekend. According to head coach Erich Hinterstocker, it was a tough pill to swallow.
While most volleyball teams would be happy with the results Rice posted last weekend, this year's team heads out west this coming weekend with a bitter taste in their mouth. Hosting the first of two Rice Invitational tournaments, the Owls got off to a hot start against Texas Tech University on Friday evening at Tudor Fieldhouse.
