The Alma Volleyball team hit the road Wednesday evening to take on Albion in one of the last three games of the regular season. The Scots came away with a hard-fought 3-1 victory (17-25, 25-21, 25-17, 25-23), to improve to 11-3 in the MIAA and 16-10 overall, while the Britons are now 4-21 in 2010 and 0-14 in the league.

Albion came out strong in the first game and jumped on the Scots early, before ultimately winning the first match 25-17. The second game was tight throughout, before the Scots pulled out the 25-21 advantage, and Alma also won the third game 25-17.

The Britons were stubborn on this evening however, and pushed Alma hard in the fourth game. It was tied at 23-23, until the Scots closed it out with the final two points and the victory.
