TIFFIN, Ohio - The Bluffton University volleyball team fell to #4 Wittenberg on the opening night of the No One Fights Alone Invitational at Heidelberg University. Bluffton stands 4-2, while the Tigers stayed perfect at 4-0.
The Beavers led 5-4 in the first before Wittenberg took control with a 6-1 spurt for the 10-6 lead. The Tigers never looked back, dispatching Bluffton in three quick sets (25-15, 25-14, 25-11).
Erika Byler, a Bluffton University senior communication major from Shipshewana, Ind., found her calling this summer through the Ministry Inquiry Program. It just wasn’t the calling most participants find during the program, a collaboration between Mennonite Church USA and the Mennonite colleges.
“I wasn’t sure if I was feeling called to the ministry or just to the program, so I decided to try it out,” said Byler. “At this point in my life pastoring is not for me.”
