CORALVILLE — Clear Creek-Amana is headed to its second Iowa high school state volleyball championship game in four years after sweeping Davenport Assumption in the Class 4A semifinals on Wednesday, Nov. 4, at Xtream Arena. The 3-seed Clippers overpowered the No. 2 seed Knights from the start, winning 25-17, 25-22 and 25-12 to earn a date with No. 1 Norwalk in the 4A championship match on Thursday, Nov. 5. CCA was highly motivated after losing to Assumption, 2-1, during the Iowa City West Invite on Sept. 12. "We wanted to make sure that they didn't remember us the way that we played the last time we played them," said Clear Creek Amana coach Jackie Clubb. "We wanted to make sure we hung in there and controlled the game as much as possible. You've just got to be ready to go. They were." The Clippers outclassed Assumption in the rematch. They cruised in the first set, hung tough in the second and then dropped the hammer in the third set. CCA jumped out to a 12-3 lead in the third set, and Assumption never stood a chance. Delaney Vaske delivered the final two kills to send the Clippers to the 4A
