The Viking volleyball team hit the trifecta during a busy Homecoming week, winning all three of their matches against league opponents.

The spikers took down Mount Vernon Christian 3-1 at home on Tuesday, and followed it with a convincing 3-0 clean sweep of Cedar Park Christian on Thursday. Homecoming on Saturday featured a real barn burner as the team faced off against Shoreline Christian in a contest for third place in league standings. After three hotly contested sets, the home Vikings were ahead 2-1. The Hurricanes took the fourth set into overtime before the Vikings prevailed 28-26, and won the match 3-1.

Next up for the Vikings is Friday Harbor at home on Oct. 18, La Conner away on Oct. 20, and the Bear Creek Tournament away on Oct. 22.  The last home game of the season is on Oct. 25 against Concrete at p.m.
