What to Know: An eight-game trip – which started with Thursday's national-championship rematch against No. 2-ranked Oklahoma City – continues on Friday and Saturday at the second annual NAIA SB Invitational in Shawnee, Okla., and ends Sunday with a stop on the way out at No. 9-ranked Science & Arts (Okla.). The Raiders came away from OCU with a split, following a 5-2 loss with an 8-3 win. By the time they wrap up this weekend, they'll have played eight games against Top 25 teams and six more against NCAA Division II teams. They're preparing to open up their new stadium, Laurel Park, on Feb. 27-28 as No. 3 Eastern Oregon visits on the first weekend of Cascade Conference play.

No. 4 SOU BEACH VOLLEYBALL (0-0)
11 a.m. Friday – vs. Chaminade (Hawaii) (4-0)
11 a.m. Saturday – vs. Sacramento State (0-0)
What to Know: Coming off an appearance in the semifinal round of the NAIA Invitational, the Raiders were No. 3 in the NAIA preseason poll and No. 4 in this week's first poll of the regular season. They'll open the program's fourth season under head coach Paul Elliott in Salem, meeting Chaminade and Sacramento State for neutral-site duals on the Corban Beach Courts. The Raiders, who went 19-11 overall in 2025, make their home debut Feb. 27 against Simpson (Calif.). Read the season preview here.

No. 6 SOU MEN'S WRESTLING (16-1)

What to Know: The Raiders will try to win their second straight title at the Cascade Conference Championships presented by U.S. Bank, which moves this weekend to Corban's C.E. Jeffers Center in Salem. SOU was the CCC's third-highest-ranked team when it pulled off last year's shocker – the team's first championship since 2018 – but enters this weekend as the clear favorite with top seeds in four of 10 brackets and 10 total nationally-ranked individuals. The biggest threats to the Raiders' title defense are No. 9 Embry-Riddle (Ariz.) and No. 12 Providence (Mont.), but SOU handled both in dual action. Read the tournament preview here.

What to Know: An unprecedented Cascade Conference regular season comes down to this: entering the final weekend, five teams (including SOU, the defending champion) are tied for first place and a sixth is one game back. The championship race is as crowded up front as it's ever been, and those in the lead pack will have nonstop head-to-head matchups before hitting the finish line as SOU (14-4) and Oregon Tech (14-4) visit Eastern Oregon (14-4) and College of Idaho (13-5) while Lewis-Clark State (14-4) hosts Corban (14-4). It's a safe bet that the winner of the LCSC-Corban game will finish, at worst, as a co-champion and that SOU needs a road sweep to also get a share of the title. The No. 1 seed will host the entire CCC Tournament (Feb. 27-March 2), and on that note, the Raiders will be Corban fans this weekend because they swept the Warriors during the regular season and therefore own that head-to-head tiebreaker. (A word to the wise: protect your mental health by refraining from applying tiebreakers to any other potential scenarios. There are a lot of them.) In short, the layout is complicated but the task is simple for the Raiders: just win.

What to Know: Compared to the mess in the CCC women's standings, the men's side is only slightly less absurd. Five teams remain in championship contention entering the final weekend of the regular season, with Lewis-Clark State (14-4), Eastern Oregon (14-4) and Oregon Tech (14-4) locked up as co-leaders and Southern Oregon (13-5) and College of Idaho (13-5) standing one game back. The Raiders can still earn a share of the title with some help and a sweep, but the latter is a feat that no team in the conference has pulled off on the EOU-CI road swing since the 2017-18 season. Regardless of what happens on Friday, Saturday's game against the Yotes will remain pivotal: if the Raiders win, they'll host a CCC Tournament quarterfinal on Wednesday, and if they lose, they'll be on the road as the No. 5 seed. They need all the wins they can get to thicken their NAIA Tournament résumé, and they got one of their best of the season against the Yotes with a 95-81 decision in which they shot 54% from the field on Jan. 9. A night later, they shot 30% in a 60-51 loss to EOU.
