TWIN FALLS, Idaho – The 11th-ranked CSI volleyball team extended its winning streak to three as it outlasted in-state rival North Idaho on Saturday afternoon, knocking off the Cardinals 26-24, 22-25, 25-16, 25-22.
Similar to the night before, the match was knotted up after two sets, but the Golden Eagles came out of the break between sets two and three firing, as they were able to pull away down the stretch and pick up their second four-set victory over the Cardinals on the weekend.
Emma Pannell had a monster day, finishing with 21 kills and 20 digs, while hitting at a .364 clip. Three other Golden Eagles finished in double digits as Vivian Goto, Isadora Bueno and Laura Grasel each had 11 kills in the win.
Emerson Heatwole once again had a game-high 21 digs and pitched in nine assists, while Dalayni Brindley had a game-high 32 assists. Bueno led the way with seven blocks on the day, while Nana Lobzhanidze added five blocks.
With the win, Southern Idaho moves to 19-6 overall and 8-2 in conference play as it now preps for its final regular-season games of the season next weekend, when the Golden Eagles head to Colorado Northwestern for a pair of matches beginning Friday at 6 p.m.
