Field Set for CCC Volleyball Tournament
PORTLAND, Ore. – The pairings are set for the 2011 Cascade Collegiate Conference Volleyball Tournament, which will be held on the campus of College of Idaho Nov. 11-12.
The two-day, four-team tournament gets under with semifinals on Friday. The championship match will be played Saturday at 3 p.m.
Regular season champion College of Idaho (22-2, 17-1 CCC) will host fourth-seeded Northwest (12-11, 10-8) Friday at 7 p.m. At 4 p.m., second-seeded Southern Oregon (19-4, 16-2) will face third-seeded Eastern Oregon (17-10, 15-3).
Northwest earned the conference’s fourth and final berth after surviving a series of tiebreakers with Concordia, which shared fourth place with the Eagles. NU advanced after posting a slim advantage in percent of sets won in conference play. NU and Concordia split their season series by identical 3-1 scores, and posted the same win-loss records against each of the other eight teams in the CCC.
The CCC tournament winner will earn the conference’s automatic bid to the NAIA Championships, which get underway with opening-round matches Nov. 19.
