Not sure how Maeder is. She was injured against Arizona on Sunday. She collapsed to the floor, the point was whistled dead, and she hopped off the court without putting weight on her left (?) leg.

She landed on Grote coming down from a block. Sprained ankle.

Cal are a mess but I thought Schrag had her best match of the season against Arizona. They really need someone to step up and take that jersey.

OSU won this match up 3-0 last time they met, and they even had Mirkovic, Smoot, and Maeder. This is OSU's to win or lose. They have been trending up, by taking sets from good teams. CAL might get a set this time around in CAL's gym, but OSU should take this.

Oregon State took the first set 25-20

Voters predicted CAL to win this match. I'm sure you want your home team to win, but voting for them to win with the state of their team injuries and recent struggles makes no sense. CAL just has to look towards next year. OSU was lead by Goings with 18 kills, and Schell with 11. Mirkovic was still out, and so was Maeder. Smoot was back and lead with 9 kills. Again CAL's hitters really struggled with their percentages. No pin hitter hit more than .100.
