Head coach Lyndsey Benson and the Northern Colorado women's volleyball program will host their Spring Tournament on Saturday, March 29, in Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion.

Participating teams in the scrimmage-type tournament will include Northeastern Junior College (Sterling, Colo.), Adams State College (Alamosa, Colo.), Regis University (Denver), Western Nebraska Community College (Scottsbluff, Neb.) and Northern Colorado.

"It's a great chance for us to see other teams and, specifically, other hitters on the other side of the net," Benson said. "Our team is anxious to get back on the court and compete. We have implemented some new things early this semester so we're looking forward to seeing those in a game situation."

Two courts will be utilized, and tournament matches will include a best two-out-of-three games to 25 format with the third game being played to 15. The lineup for the day's matches is below.

Admission is free to the public, and Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion will be open at 8:30 a.m.
