The UCLA women’s volleyball will play its final home series of the season this weekend against the Oregon State Beavers. Tonight, the teams will meet at 6 pm PT and the match will be live streamed.

Last Time Out

On Sunday, the Bruins dropped their second match against Southern Cal in five sets, 25-27, 23-25, 25-14, 25-21, 11-15.

The first set went into extra points, but the Bruins probably should have won it. With the score 18-17, Southern Cal, UCLA went on a 7-1 run that put the Bruins on the verge of taking the set. Unfortunately, the Trojans fought off five straight set points to tie it 24-24. From there, Southern Cal had their first set point at 25-24, but the Bruins tied it back up. A pair of kills from the Trojans ended the first set, 27-25.

After Southern Cal took the second set 25-23, the Bruins came back and ran away with the third set, 25-14. The fourth set was quite a bit closer but, with the score tied 17-17, UCLA went on a 4-0 to take the lead for good and they tied the match with a 25-21 win.

Unfortunately, the Trojans started the fourth set with a 4-1 run and UCLA just couldn’t catch up as they had a tough time scoring on consecutive points. As a result, Southern Cal went on to win the set, 15-11, and the match, 3-2.

Oregon State Beavers

Tonight, Oregon State comes to town and they shouldn’t be much of a match for UCLA. That’s because the Beavers are in 10th place in the Pac-12 with a 5-11 record. Of course, a team’s record doesn’t take into account future performance, but it’s a pretty good indicator and that indicator suggests a Bruin sweep tonight.
