CHADRON, Neb. – Chadron State volleyball hits the road this week in search of a win that will count in the RMAC standings when they face CSU Pueblo and Adams State this Friday and Saturday.
After winning the first set but failing to win the match in both contests last week, Chadron State (4-12, 0-6 RMAC) is still winless in conference play, although they have defeated a pair of RMAC opponents, South Dakota Mines and Black Hills State, in non conference matches in that time frame. Both of this week’s matches are conference games.
The Eagles will face CSU Pueblo (10-6, 4-2 RMAC) on Friday at 7 p.m. in Pueblo and Adams State (4-13, 1-5 RMAC) on Saturday at 6 p.m. in Alamosa. Both matches can be live streamed on the RMAC Network and followed via live stats.
