STANFORD, CA – The No. 6 ranked Long Beach State men’s volleyball team snapped its four-match losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the No. 7 ranked Stanford Cardinal, Friday night at Maples. Game scores were 27-30, 32-30, 30-25, 31-29.

Hey Beachy,

Congratulations on Long Beach over Stanford. I predicted the LB win, and this week's record, I was 8 - 1 for all MPSF matches( 9 -1 if Pepperdine beats UCI tomorrow). My only loss was to predict Hawaii sweeping Northridge. Northridge beat Hawaii, but tonight's match looks like UH is leading...what's with the black out in the first close game? Hawaii eventually won.

For your information, mvbdad beat me this week...he predicted a perfect score 9 - 0 (10 - 0 if Pepperdine beats UCI tomorrow). He said that Hawaii would split with Northridge. This is fun...Does anyone else want to compete with us with their predictions? How about Bookum? What about you Beachy?

My next week's predictions:
Hawaii will split with BYU
Northridge over Long Beach
Northridge over UCSD
Long Beach over UC Santa Barbara
Pacific over UCI
Pacific over UCLA
Pepperdine over USC
UCI over Stanford
Stanford over UCLA
UC Santa Barbara over UCSD

Long Beach has a lot of young talent...I look to them next year to be #1 or #2...however, they could be the spoilers this year. We'll see. There still is a lot of season left. It's an exciting season...GO EVERYONE!

[vballmom]

Well, this is all getting very exciting, to say the least! Who will make it to the MPSF tournament? Who will prevail?

[vballmom]

Do I dare take a stab at predictions? I don't get to see them play, so it will be based on what I have read (and maybe a little bit of wishful thinking)

Next week's predictions:
Hawaii will split with BYU
Long Beach over Northridge
Northridge over UCSD
Long Beach over UC Santa Barbara
UCI over Pacific
Pacific over UCLA
Pepperdine over USC
UCI over Stanford
Stanford over UCLA
UC Santa Barbara over UCSD

Northridge will be tired from their exciting trip to Hawaii and that will give Long Beach the edge. UCI is looking to return to their winning ways and will take it out on Pacific.

Anyone following the MPSF would be well advised to stock up on Pepcid AC or Rolaids cause that is just exactly the type of season and the type of competition that we have seen all season. Not much is gonna change either. Whomever is healthiest and and playing the best in about 4 weeks is gonna be the team to beat! Like I have said all along, this may not be Long Beach's year, but next year? I like our chances!
