The Lewis-Clark State volleyball team swept all three sets in beating Whitworth Wednesday night in Spokane by scores of 25-21, 25-15 and 25-16. Senior Anile Clemente recorded a match-high 12 kills and junior Jenika Bird added 11 as the Warriors improved to 3-2 on the year.

LC will now face what appears to be its toughest tests of the season this weekend when the Warriors travel to southern California for the Concordia Tournament in Irvine and Costa Mesa. LC will play four matches in two days against four of the NAIA’s pre-season top 10 teams.
