Corner Canyon is two wins from a repeat 6A volleyball title after sweeping No. 8 Bingham 3-0 in Tuesday, Oct. 27's state quarterfinal at the UCCU Center in Orem.

The top-seeded Chargers won by set scores of 25-21, 30-28 and 25-18, as reported by the Deseret News. The second set went to extra points, but Corner Canyon closed it out.

Maija Mortensen led the Chargers with 15 kills. Leah Schaub added eight, and setter Nafanua Alofipo finished with 31 assists.

Corner Canyon coach Mindy Ricks told the Deseret News the team had been working on its mentality heading into the postseason. "We have been working on playing with the mindset, 'Play to win instead of playing not to lose,'" Ricks said.

Ricks added that the Chargers were finally healthy after dealing with injuries in recent weeks, calling the quarterfinal the first time the team had everyone back.

Earlier on Tuesday, Oct. 27, the Chargers dispatched No. 16 Cedar Valley 3-0 (25-10, 25-14, 25-16) in the first round.
