Oregon volleyball goes 3-0 over weekend on the road at Ram Classic in Fort Collins
After splitting its opening matches at Matthew Knight Arena last week, the No. 12 Oregon volleyball team defeated all three of the opponents it faced at the Ram Volleyball Classic over the weekend in Fort Collins, Colorado.
The Ducks (4-1) opened the weekend with a four-set win over host Colorado State on Friday (20-25, 25-21, 25-23, 25-23). Mimi Colyer led Oregon with 19 kills while Daley McClellan led the Ducks with 20 digs and Cristin Cline dished out 45 assists.
In its second game on Saturday, Oregon took down Grand Canyon in a five-set thriller (25-13, 20-25, 22-25, 25-16, 16-14). Trailing two sets to one, the Ducks rattled off two straight-set wins to survive. Onye Ofoegbu had a team-high 19 kills, Colyer added another 17 and Cline had 57 assists in the win.
In the final game Sunday morning, the Ducks won a much-less-dramatic match against Central Arkansas in sweeping fashion (25-12, 25-11, 25-17).
The Ducks will head back out on the road next weekend to the USD Invitational in San Diego, starting with a match against BYU Friday.
