There's no place like home and certainly no place like the postseason and for the Montana Tech Volleyball team it will be a little bit of both this weekend as the Orediggers play host to the 2022 Frontier Conference Volleyball Tournament.   The Orediggers, currently ranked #17 in the nation, are simply on a tear going 14-1 in their last 15 matches and bringing a 9-1 conference record into the same gym where they have yet to lose a match this season.  But if you think the title is just going to be handed over to the Diggs, well, you don't know the Frontier Conference.  Simply anything can happen at tournament time.
