BYU took the first set 25-9. Ouch. Not sure Portland has any answers. Lots of aces for BYU. All of BYU's hitters are making few errors, and hitting smart and hard. Whitney Bower is playing well, freshman libero looks solid. It's fun to get a look at the BYU lineup.

Portland takes their first lead at 9-8. 10-8. Tipping more shots now and going off high hands...

Portland is playing a lot better this set. They seemed to have settled down from the first-set shellacking.

BYU retakes the lead at 23-22. I miss the live stats. BYU has had a lot of aces in these two sets.
Ballard Nixon has been set quite a few times from the pipe. First few were successful, but then Portland seemed to figure her out. Dodson looks really good on the outside. She ran one slide when she rotated to the right side, but the timing wasn't there yet.
BYU takes set two 25-22 on a Portland hitting error.

Portland aced the BYU libero 3x in a row and forced a bad pass on the next serve. Yikes. Pilots up 7-5 in set 3.

BYU is up 23-14 in the third set looking to close out the sweep. Portland just took a timeout.

The oversized lady is singing. BYU playing well now and up 23-14. Ballard-Nixon is really putting some sizzle on her hits from the outside...so nice to see after her slow college start. Portland having trouble on serve receive and making lots of hitting errors. Whitney Bower is a very offensive minded setter, esp. considering her size. She loves the two-handed dump, and Portland just isn't picking it up. She's also doing a very good job on defense.
I'm looking forward to seeing the box score.
Final 25-17 for a BYU sweep. (-9, -22, -17)

BYU outhit Portland .379 to .108. BYU hit a sizzling .500 in the first set and .429 in the third. They were actually outhit .257 to .235 in the second.
For BYU, Ballard-Nixon hit .393 on a line of 14-3-28, and she also had seven digs. Grimmer hit .348 on 10-2-23, while Eschenberg hit .667 on 6-0-9. Dodson had a great first match, hitting .318 on 9-2-22. Bower had 4 kills, 31 assists and 18 digs. Allen had 17 digs in her collegiate debut.
For Portland, Harris led the way with nine kills and five digs on .273 hitting, while Wesley had eight kills and seven digs. Lawson had five kills, and Williams had 11 digs. Is Portland running a 6-2? I didn't notice while watching, but Helm had 14 assists, and Hughes had 11.

Allen had 17 digs in her collegiate debut. Said it before but she's going to be a good one.
