The Region 8 champions will Harvey play on Thursday night in the final Class B match of the day at the Minot State University Dome.
Last year, the Blue Jays also qualified for state and finished eighth. The Blue Jays are hoping to use that experience to help them this season.
"I think (it will help us)," Niemitalo said. "I think it has so far even. Anytime you get in situations like that, it helps you."
Stanley's front row of Jasmin Pappa, Brooke Meyer, Shaunessy Dauwalder and Rachel Mehus were firing on all cylinders in the regional tournament, and the Blue Jays will need to keep that up to advance. State Class B volleyball tournament
