Cal sweeps Oregon State

[BearClause]

30-24, 30-17. 30-25. Angie Pressey leads all players with 16 kills hitting .448. Mindi Wiley with 9 kills hitting .692.

I know it's just OSU, but that gives Cal 7 Pac-10 wins, which seems to be the magic number for the past few years to get into the NCAAs.

What's up with Oregon State?? They have a better player this year in Rourke than they had last year yet almost all of their matches they have lost have been 0-3. Usually when a new coach especially one with the reputation of Liskevych comes in you would see more improvement in the 2nd season. I know the Pac-10 is brutally tough but their losses are bad. It will be tough for Terry to recruit after this season when Oregon is Top 25 and Washington State is doing better.

8 freshmen.

8 freshmen? Tha't only half the team. He only lost two players to graduation last year.
He is going to have a very tough time recruiting this year and next year will be another long season. (or a short season that seems long).

The freshmen played significant roles on the court for the Beavers. In the beginning of the season, they were running a 6-2 and when they finally settled on Ah-Hoy as the setter and ran a 5-1, she was lost with a season ending injury. Next year they will be better, with the core being back.

But with or without that setter, they didn't seem to be doing good either. They're going to lose 3 very good seniors for them this year.
