The 8th ranked WWU volleyball team returns to action Tuesday.  The Vikings take their eight-match winning streak up north to battle Simon Fraser University at 7:00pm in Burnaby, British Columbia.

Western is 15-and-3 overall and tied with Northwest Nazarene for 1st place in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference with a 9-and-1 league mark. WWU is coming off a 3-set sweep of Seattle Pacific University at home on Saturday.

Tuesday’s match is the first of four on the road for the Vikings. Western visits Montana State Billings on Saturday before battling Western Oregon and Concordia next week.
