The Snow College volleyball team dropped its last non-conference matchup last Wednesday against Western Wyoming Community College 3-2. The Badgers entered the match with a 8-4 overall record through three weekends of the season.
The Badgers were coming off of a 1-3 record during the UFirst Intermountain Invitational. The Badgers dropped matches against No. 8 Weatherford College, No. 3 New Mexico Military Institute, and No. 9 Trinity Valley Community College. The lone win came against No. 14 Eastern Arizona College.
