FOREST GROVE, Ore. - Haley Bedell and Kelsey Takashima each had 12 kills as the Boxers took advantage of their .239 attack percentage in their sweep of the Wildcats 3-0 at the Stoller Center on Saturday night.

Pacific (10-5) improves to 4-2 in Northwest Conference play while Linfield (7-8) drops to 2-4.
