Seven dual matches remain in the regular season for the Vermillion Tanagers volleyball team, starting next Thursday with a match on the road at Madison.
The Tanagers will then play at Ponca, Canton, Beresford and Harrisburg and have home duals with Dakota Valley and Elk Point-Jefferson before district tournament play begins in the first week of November.
