SALEM, Ore. – The No. 16-ranked Corban University volleyball team downed Oregon Tech in straight sets (25-19, 25-15, 25-19). The win moves the Warriors back into a tie for first place with Eastern Oregon after the Mountaineers swept College of Idaho on Friday evening.

After pulling away in set number one by six points, the Warriors rode the momentum into set two with the comfortable 10-point triumph. While Oregon Tech held a lead for much of the third stanza, the Warriors were the team that finished strong, resulting in the sweep of the Owls.
 
Marandah Boeder proved to be big-time at the net, totaling four block assists to go with two solo blocks, seemingly blocking everything the Owls threw at her.
