LA GRANDE, Ore. –The College of Idaho volleyball team has been named the “Adidas Team of the Week” for November 9-15, the Cascade Collegiate Conference announced Sunday.
 
CI entered the 2015 CCC Volleyball Tournament presented by U.S. Bank as the No. 3 seed needing to win three matches to have a chance at reaching the NAIA National Tournament. Their first match was against the No. 6 seed Oregon Tech on Nov. 11. The Yotes defeated the Lady Owls 3-0 (25-20, 25-18, 25-19) to advance to the final site hosted by regular season champions Eastern Oregon University.
 
In the first semifinal CI faced No. 2 seed and 15th ranked Southern Oregon University Raiders. In an epic 5-game match the Yotes prevailed 3-2 (25-19, 19-25, 19-25, 25-16, 15-8) sending the Raiders home and advancing to the CCC Tournament Championship game.
 
In the chipper CI faced I-84 rival Eastern Oregon with an automatic bid at stake. The Yotes, behind the efforts of newly crowned Player of the Year Kylie Porter, stifled the Mountaineers in three straight games to win 3-0 (27-25, 25-21, 25-16).
 
The tournament title was the fourth straight for head coach Liz Mendiola and the Yotes. CI will learn who they will face in the NAIA Tournament Opening Round on Monday Nov. 16.
