After opening the Canadian Collegiate Baseball Conference (CCBC) season with two wins on Thursday, the Okanagan College Coyotes completed the four-game sweep of the Edmonton Collegiate Riverhawks on Friday night and Saturday afternoon.

On Saturday afternoon, the Coyotes completed the sweep by beating Edmonton 7-2.

The individual statistics are not yet available from any of the four games.
