COLLEGE VOLLEYBALL No. 14 Raiders upset No. 11 Eastern Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Sep. 27, 2014 at 2:00 AM Posted Sep. 27, 2014 at 2:00 AM » Social News ASHLAND — The 14th-ranked Southern Oregon University volleyball team roared back to upset 11th-ranked Eastern Oregon Friday in Cascade Conference play. Down two sets to one and 17-11 in the fourth, the Raiders rallied for a 20-25, 28-26, 16-25, 25-20, 20-18 win in the first ever top-15 matchup between the teams. EOU (15-2 overall, 5-1 CC) remains winless in 25 all-time matches at SOU. The Raiders improved to 11-3 and 5-1. Their win came at a cost, though. After going completely flat in the third set — they allowed EOU to hit .400 in the stanza and committed five straight errors after cutting EOU’s lead to 16-14 — the Raiders lost Nikki Keller, who has led the CCC in hitting efficiency the last two seasons, to a dislocated ankle at the beginning of the fourth set. SOU eventually went down six points in front of a shell-shocked crowd, but was revived with a 14-3 run (including six straight to end the set), then broke match-point four times in the fifth. Paulla Pinheiro clobbered 25 kills on 54 attacks with 12 digs, and three of her kills kept the match alive in the final set. Emma Gasman had 10 kills, including four in the fifth, and Brookelynn Cole came up with 26 digs. As a team SOU totaled a season-high 18 blocks, getting six assisted from Gasman, and three solo and four assisted from Keller. The turning point correlated with the insertions of Shelby Young, Kelsea MacPhee and Abbie Hanser into the lineup. None of them played until Keller’s injury, but Young finished with seven big kills, MacPhee had three kills and two assisted blocks, and Hanser got in on two blocks.
