Isabella Vasquez had nine kills apiece to lead the fifth-ranked Tigers to a 25-21, 25-12, 25-10 win over Centenary.
Despite trailing by as many as eight points during the opening stages of the first set, Centenary continued to battle and was within two point at 20-18. A kill from Harris and one of CC's 11 blocked shots ignited a 5-3 surge that closed out the first set.
The Tigers carried the momentum into the second set and raced to an early 7-1 lead on a Vasquez kill. After Lauren Kelley delivered one of her match-high 10 kills for the Ladies, Colorado College ripped off 14 of the next 18 points to open a commanding 14-point lead.
The third set was a carbon copy of the previous one with CC scoring nine of the first 10 points, which allowed head coach

Steffey-Bean hit an error-free .648 on 14 swings, while Harris finished .500 with only one error on 16 attacks.
Sophomore opposite hitter
Laney Swan hit .545 with six kills on 11 attempts without an error.
Sophomore setter
Isabelle Aragon-Menzel dished out a career-high 38 assists and added six digs.
As a team, CC hit .389, which was the fifth-highest mark in a match this season.
Marguerite Spaethling had a hand in seven of her team's blocked shots, while Steffey-Bean and Swan were each involved in four.
Junior libero
Anna Gurolnick led the Tigers with a match-high 15 digs.
Colorado College held Centenary to a .021 team hitting percentage, which marks the 17th time an opponent hit below .100 against the Tigers this season.
Marissa Sandoval posted a team-high seven digs for the Ladies, while Michaela Brantley had a hand in all three of Centenary's blocked shots.
Colorado College improved to 23-2 overall and 10-1 in the SCAC.
The Tigers travel to San Antonio next week for another round of conference matches. CC plays Texas Lutheran University and Trinity University on Saturday, Oct. 30, and then Schreiner University on Sunday, Oct. 21.
