SAN DIEGO — Isabel Clark and
Nemo Beach both totaled 13 kills on Saturday afternoon, leading San Diego volleyball (8-6, 3-1 WCC) to a dominant 3-0 win over Oregon State (3-10, 1-2 WCC) as Alumni Weekend concluded at the Jenny Craig Pavilion.
Their efforts were bolstered by eight kills from
Kennedy Osunsanmi and another seven from
Haylee Stoner, who continued her efficient ways by hitting an absurd .778 as the Toreros beat the Beavers 25-21, 25-12, and 25-22.
USD didn't trail in either of the first two frames, and erased a five-point deficit late in the third set to secure its fifth sweep of 2024. San Diego nearly held OSU to single digits in set two, holding a 23-9 lead before the Beavers scored a trio of points down the stretch.
Freshman setter
Kylie Munday continued to shine, racking up 38 assists as she finished a dig shy of the eighth double-double of her young college career.
Clark helped headline the defense, recording a match-high 12 digs to notch a double-double of her own that complemented a team-high four block assists (and seven kills) from
Kristen Erland.
NOTABLE:
- Sophomore setter Tatum Lane appeared in Saturday afternoon's sweep and contributed six digs, which marked the first of her college career. Lane had previously played in just one match for USD (September 8 vs. UC Santa Barbara).
- San Diego out-hit Oregon State .346 to .191.
- Olivia Bennett and Kristen Erland each had one service ace.
- Members of USD's 2004 Sweet 16 team were recognized between sets two and three.
UP NEXT
The Toreros are back in action on Thursday night, when they travel up to Los Angeles to take on Loyola Marymount. First serve at the Gersten Pavilion is set for 6:00 p.m.
