ASU had 68 digs in this game compared to Oregon State’s 51 digs. The dig difference played a key role as the defense kept rallies going and let outside hitters, Ivana Jeremic, Claire Kovensky, and Alyse Ford, have several opportunities to get kills.
The three outside hitters had 29 of the 46 kills against Oregon State.
