Winners of five of their last six matches, the Beacons (9-2, 5-2 CCC) head into the weekend in a three-way tie for third-place in the Cascade Collegiate Conference. They open up against one of those teams with whom they are tied in the Evergreen Geoducks (5-3, 5-2).
 
The Geoducks have signature CCC wins this season against Southern Oregon University and Northwest, and come in as winners of three of their last four. Zoe Shaw and Lily Stewart lead the way for ESC, combining to take over half of the attack attempts on the team. Stewart leads the way with 100 kills and 24 blocks and also leads the team with 17 service aces.
 
The Beacons have had their fair share of success against Evergreen, going 18-9 in the all-time series, but the Geoducks got the better of Bushnell the last time the teams faced off in Olympia, winning 3-1 back in 2019. The teams have split their season series in each of the last three seasons in which they competed.
 
Bushnell moves on to Kirkland on Saturday, looking for their third straight win against the Eagles. Northwest holds a 17-10 margin in the all-time series. They are led by setter Anna Saelens, who is tied with Bushnell's Makenna Northern for the top spot in the CCC, averaging 9.8 assists per set. Abby Broussard owns the most service aces in the conference with 26, and ranks 37th in the NAIA with 0.58 per set.
