The Helena High Bengals varsity volleyball team picked up a hard-fought road conference win Friday, September 12, defeating the Big Sky Eagles in Missoula by a score of 3-2. Five-set matches on the road in conference play are rarely comfortable, and this one went the distance before Helena sealed it.
The win adds a conference victory to the Bengals' record heading into the heart of the fall schedule. Big Sky has historically been a competitive program in Class AA volleyball, making the result a meaningful road test for Helena High. Details on individual set scores and standout performers were not immediately available.
Helena High competes in the Eastern AA conference, and road wins in Missoula carry weight in the standings. The Bengals' next matches will determine whether this five-setter carries momentum into the rest of the season.
