THE MOUNTAINEERS LAST TIME OUTFIVE SET THRILLER GOES TO MOUNTAINEERSSept. 1, 2012

KIRKLAND, Wash. – Th e Eastern Oregon University volleyball team grabbed a 3-2 win at Northwest University.

Th e Mountaineers (8-2, 2-0 Cascade Col-legiate Conference) snapped their nine-match losing streak in fi ve-set matches with the victory. Th e Northwest and EOU series was even at 11-11 over the last 10 years entering the match, and Saturday was another battle.

“I’m just so happy we got this win tonight,” Eastern head coach Kaki Morehead said. “Not only to win a fi ve-set match, but to beat such a quality team like Northwest means a lot. Northwest is a tough team no doubt about it.”

Eastern Oregon was led by Stefani Sorensen’s 17 kills. Kaitlyn Duncan had a match-high 43 digs. Jessica Perron had a match-high 25 assists, and Bobbi Sumpter added 20 assists. Casey Loper and Alisha Crane combined for 24 kills, while Re-becca Haight totaled 11 kills and 20 digs.

Th e fi rst set featured seven ties early on. Th e turning point came with the score knotted at 13-13. Four straight attack er-rors by EOU would lead to a 17-13 North-west lead. Irene Walters would stop the run with her kill. However, four straight kills by NU, and a service error by EOU would end the set, 25-19 for the Eagles.

EOU would lead the entire second set with the exception of one tie. Late in the set an-other EOU miscue, a kill by Sarah Stoker, and a service ace by Olivia VanDlac would make it a 22-20 score, but kills by Loper, and Haight would win the set for the Mountaineers.

Seven ties in the third set would keep it close until the teams were tied at 20-20.

Eastern took a two-point lead, 22-20, on a kill by Haight and an attack error by Northwest. Aft er a Crane kill, Lauryn Ernster would make it 24-22 with her kills, but EOU would come away with the set victory on an attack error by the Eagles.

VanDlac helped give NU a 10-8 lead in the fourth set with two service aces. North-west maintained the lead the remainder of the set, growing the lead to 20-13 aft er Arika Zwack’s kill. Sorenson closed the lead to 22-17 with a pair of kills. Kills by Haight and Crane would make it a two point lead for NU, 22-20. But, the Eagles hung on and forced an extra set.

Th e fi ft h and fi nal set was close through its entirety, and following a 10-all tie, Eastern moved into a 12-10 lead on a Taylor Stewart kill and service ace. Zwack pulled the Eagles within one point with a kill, 13-12, but following a Van Dlac kill, Stefani Sorensen closed the match with a kill.

VanDlac led Northwest U. (2-5, 0-2 CCC) with a match-high 18 kills and added 15 digs. Covey had 12 kills and 12 digs. Heather Shulke, had a team-high 37 digs. Ashton Arbuthnot fi nished with 21 assists and 14 digs. Sarah Stoker had a match-high four blocks.
