YVCC goes long way for sweep

September 3, 2010 by  

ROSEBURG, Ore. — Two long road trips did nothing to tire out Yakima Valley Community College’s volleyball team this week.

After sweeping Skagit Valley in Mount Vernon on Wednesday, the Yaks traveled 412 miles south and swept Umpqua 25-21, 25-15, 25-18 on Thursday.

Tori Fisher, a freshman from Eisenhower, put down 12 kills while Sam Zapien, a freshman from Granger, collected seven kills and 10 blocks.

“This is a nice group of kids, and we’re off to a good start,” said YVCC coach Al Rogers. “We played hard both days.”

YVCC swept Skagit Valley 25-20, 25-21, 25-13 on Wednesday with 25 digs from Veronica Sanchez.

Thursday highlights: Tori Fisher 12 kills; Samantha Zapien 7 kills, 10 blocks; Erin Mertens 14 assists; Veronica Sanchez 35 digs.
