SOU landed, not one but, two volleyball players on the NAIA All American list today. Neither is a senior so look for another amazing season in 2019. Details here.

The SOU volleyball team has been named the “Under Armour Team of the Week” the Cascade Collegiate Conference announced Sunday. The Raiders reached the national quarterfinals for the first time in program history before being eliminated by the eventual national champion Park University. The 2018 team finished with their most wins (29-5) since 1993 and the highest win percentage (.853) in team history. Massey has Southern Oregon at #7 (of over 220 teams) in their final ratings.

As I mentioned early last week, Southern Oregon came into their pool as the #2 team according to the coaches but as the #1 team according to Massey Ratings. Today the Raiders proved Massey correct despite a 5-set loss to Viterbo. SOU moves forward to the final 16 as the #1 team in their pool where they may be playing against Marian next–yes, the very same Marian that SOU has lots of history with in football, women’s basketball, and softball. Massey had the Raiders at #8 and Marian at #25 before today’s win. If not Marian, then Rocky Mountain will be the next opponent.

SOU swept through their second opponent in as many days this afternoon in Iowa. Jamestown, who Southern Oregon beat yesterday, upset #7 Viterbo leaving SOU as the only undefeated team in the pool. The Raiders will face Viterbo at 2 p.m. PST Thursday.
The four Cascade Conference teams (SOU, EOU, College of Idaho, and Corban) in the final 32 teams are a combined 7-0 in pool play. It’s very possible all four will advance to the final 16.

The Raiders won over Jamestown in three straight sets this afternoon. A win over St. Xavier (Wednesday at 2 p.m. PST) will mean Southern Oregon moves on to single-elimination bracketed play Friday. If they don’t succeed against St. Xavier, the Raiders will still be able to advance with a win over Viterbro (who beat St. Xavier today) on Thursday.
