PORTLAND, Ore. – Needing just one win to stay alive and head to postseason play, Oregon Tech fell short as Concordia swept a doubleheader from the Owls here Sunday afternoon.  The sweep by the No. 4 ranked Cavaliers allowed Southern Oregon to earn the third and final spot in this weekend's Cascade Collegiate Conference Softball Championships.

Concordia, which had already clinched the CCC regular season title and No. 1 seed in the three-team tournament, defeated OIT by scores of 11-0 (5 innings) and 12-1.

The losses dropped OIT into a tie for third-place with Southern Oregon, which completed its regular season Friday. After comparing head to head results between SOU and OIT (the two teams split their regular season series 2-2), the Raiders emerged victorious in the second tiebreaker when records were compared vs. the top finishing team in the CCC standings. Southern Oregon was 2-2 vs. Concordia, while Oregon Tech was 0-4.

Corban on Friday locked up the No. 2 seed in tournament by finishing alone in second place with a 14-8 CCC mark.

Oregon Tech was no-hit in the opener, while managing just two hits in the nightcap.  Jess Plummer singled, while Sara Coates accounted for the Owls' only run on a solo homerun in game 2.
