YAKIMA - The Big Bend Community College Vikings traveled west to face the Yakima Valley Community College Yaks Wednesday night.

The Vikings were able to secure a much needed road win (25-22, 24-26, 25-23, 25-16). Big Bend stands alone at fourth place in the Northwest Athletic Association of Community College East region at 3-2 and hold an overall record of 8-12.

Tuesday's loss keeps the Yaks winless in the region at 0-6 and drops their overall record to 3-10.

Sophomore outside hitter Katie Reeder led the Viking offensive attack recording 16 kills. Reeder also recorded 13 digs giving her a double-double for the match.

Freshman setter Rebecca Egan led the team with 38 digs while freshman libero Kennedy Bell and freshman outside hitter Jamie Miller added 19 digs and 10 digs, respectively.

After eight road trips and only one home match to start the year, the Vikings will have an extended stay at home hosting four matches in a row.

Big Bend will face off against Treasure Valley Community College Saturday at 1 p.m.

The Vikings defeated the Chukars on Sept. 13 in four games in Ontario, Ore.
