SEATTLE, Wash. – The Oregon State volleyball team, riddled by injury and illness, completed a comeback bid defeating New Mexico in the teams' opening match at the Redhawk Invitational Friday afternoon. Fifth-year senior Shekinah Clarke enjoyed a career match, tying for the team-lead with 15 kills including the final point of the match to help lead the Beavers with the win.
"It was a great effort today especially considering we are missing four outside hitters and so many playing out of position," head coach Mark Barnard said. "We did a really good job of coping with our circumstances this week and then even changing the lineup further during the match.
