Notes
 

• MVSU and Alcorn each knocked down a pair of blocks, the second time this year that Valley tied its opponent in that category.

 

• Valley State had its best all-around match of the season versus the Lady Braves, notching its highest kill (29) and dig (51) totals versus a NCAA Division I opponent in 2022.

Mississippi Valley looks to be horrible house guests as it looks to take down the Lady Jaguars of Southern in its lair in a Halloween clash at 1 p.m.
