OGDEN – Weber State volleyball finished their season on a five match winning streak as they took down Montana State in three sets on Saturday night.

"I'm so happy for Andi to win on senior night," said head coach Jeremiah Larsen. "I'm happy for our girls to get 13 Big Sky wins in a season. They've worked really hard and deserve all their success."

Weber State started the first set with a 5-0 run and then a 9-2 lead. They then proceeded to push forward with a 22-12 lead. To finish off the first set, senior Andrea Hale had a big kill to give WSU the 25-15 victory.

The third set, Weber State started with a 7-3 lead. Later in the set, WSU went on a 4-0 run thanks to three kills by Hale and one by Gneiting.
