BOISE, Idaho – Oregon State coming off a four-set loss to No. 1 Minnesota earlier in the day, rebounded Friday night to sweep past Idaho State at the Boise State Classic. The match, which was delayed more than an hour by the tourney's preceding match between Minnesota and Boise State, was littered with challenge reviews throughout the contest.
"We won and that's about all that was positive," head coach Mark Barnard said. "We simply were not good tonight. We had a few good moments but really need to be better."
Despite Barnard's overall assessment, the Beavers improved their record to 9-2 with the victory over the Bengals (3-8) by scores of 25-11, 25-23 and 25-19.
