ASHLAND – Cambree Scott compiled 12 kills and four blocks as top-ranked Eastern Oregon moved into sole possession of first place in the Cascade Conference with a 25-17, 25-22, 25-20 sweep of Southern Oregon on Saturday night at Lithia Motors Pavilion.

Scott and the Mountaineers (26-2 overall, 19-1 CCC), who possess the conference's top defense statistically in more than a decade, totaled 12 blocks and limited SOU (18-9, 12-8) to a .080 attacking average.

They've won 26 of their last 27 matches and now own a one-match lead in first place over No. 3-ranked Corban, which fell in five sets Saturday at Evergreen (Wash.).

The Raiders dropped into a fourth-place tie with two regular-season matches left to play, both on the road next week at Warner Pacific and Multnomah. They need one win to clinch a spot in the six-team CCC Tournament.

SOU's Trinity Atuatasi led the team with 15 digs and Karina Oliveira had 12. Hailey Van Well poured in nine kills and Simone Gordon contributed seven. Kayla Neidight had three service aces to fuel a second-set run that had the Raiders up 15-10 and eventually 22-19. EOU ended the frame with six unanswered points.

The Mountaineers got eight assisted blocks from Kara Clayton and seven from Madison Morgan.
