UNIVERSITY CENTER -- The SVSU Volleyball team remained at home for the second straight weekend, beginning with a Friday (Sep. 29) evening match against the Northwood University Timberwolves.

An Olivia Dean kill had the Cards leading by as many as seven points (21-14) en route to the first set win.
