COD Women’s Volleyball sweeps away San Bernardino, 3-0

COD (4-6; 1-0) opened up Conference play, on the road, with a 14th straight victory over the San Bernardino Valley Wolverines (1-6; 0-1), 3-0 (25-16, 25-15, 25-22).

An inauspicious start for the Wolverines to begin IEAC play, which led to a truly positive result for Desert. Sophomore libero Dakota Hansen (Myrtle Beach, SC) led the team with 15 digs and grabbed 1 service aces. Freshman setter Kianna Diaz (Palm Desert H.S.) led the team with 39 set assists, grabbing 1 service aces and 3 digs.
