College of the Canyons Women’s Volleyball pushed its win streak to four matches while picking up its second victory over a state-ranked opponent, as the Cougars pulled off a straight sets victory over visiting No. 18 Santa Barbara City College on its home court Sept. 7. Set scores were 25-15, 25-18, 25-22.

Canyons (4-1) has now defeated state-ranked opponents in back-to-back contests with the first such win coming over No. 19 Grossmont last weekend at the annual El Camino Tri. COC’s lone loss this season came in the season opener at No. 8 Irvine Valley College.

The Cougars saw three players reach eight kills with usual suspects Kaelyn White, Aly Grodell and Jacqueline Ibarra all continuing to shine.

Grodell hit .500 for the match to go with a pair of aces and two block assists. Grace Rodriguez led the way with three aces, 16 assists and seven digs.

Abby Sherman’s 11 digs were a game high and Brianna Botello led he squad with a .545 hitting percentage, along with six kills and five digs.
