The Pioneers did something no Pierz team had done in a long time, going to Pequot Lakes and actually grabbing a set from the Patriots before falling 3-1. Scores were 18-25, 26-24, 12-25, 8-25. Autumn Jones had 11 kills, Brooklyn Hanneken had 35 assists, and Sophie Leidenfrost had 30 digs. It's the first time the Pioneers have taken a set from Pequot Lakes since 2017.
