HARRIS — Things looked promising for the Bark River-Harris Broncos after the first set of a Division 3 district volleyball opener here Monday night.

Iron Mountain seized the momentum in the second set, however, in a 3-1 (20-25, 25-9, 25-15, 25-19) triumph.

The victory sends the Mountaineers (5-17-1) to Gwinn (10-14-2) for tonight’s semifinal match at 6 p.m. The Broncos finished 5-19-2.

BR-H closed the first set on a return error by the Mountaineers.

“We felt we had momentum,” BR-H coach Brooke Bartley said. “The girls came out with a lot of energy. In the huddle, we talked about pushing the ball into the front and that was working. We felt super energized.”

The Broncos took a 4-3 lead in the second frame on a block by senior middle blocker Kaet Erickson.
