Cal won 30-20, 30-23, 30-15. I was hoping for a bigger beat down, but this will do.

Carli Lloyd set the entire match and Cal didn't skip a beat in the setting dept from Samantha Carter. Kristen Kathan started at libero, although Caitlyn Murphy took over at libero for games 2/3; I don't know if that mean anything other than they wanted to try her out in that situation. I'm not sure of the stats. I'll need a box score.

Saw several tall girls in the crowd, and I'm thinking there had to be at least a few recruits mixed in.

I thought Carli Lloyd looked pretty good tonight. What seemed her only mistake was on her very first play. After that she did a good job connecting with her hitters. Cat Dailey still seems a little dingy at times, but it looks like Cutura has improved and Orchard and Beck were solid.

There was a pretty good crowd tonight. I would like to add that the blocking ( imo) was phenomenal. Orchard has to be one of the top blockers in the pac-10 this year. she ROOFS.
