Don’t be happy for ASU yet, they only won 2 matches. CalPoly won the dual 3-2. You can be happy for UofA though, they beat the Mustangs 4-1.

Think Cal Poly can still get a bid with UofA loss? 🤞🏼 Hoping for a friend! It may come down to who can win the BW tournament. Cal Poly, Hawaii and LBSU all have chances. It is really a tossup for the 2 At-Large spots.

LSU d. South Carolina 4-1 All matches except flight 1 went to 3rd set. Fitting for the regular season rubber match between the only two SEC schools playing beach. They met each of the first two weekends of the season, each winning one by a score of 3-2.
South Carolina will need some help or a run through FSU/LSU/FIU at the CCSA tournament of they want to return to the NCAA's

#1 UCLA lost its first match of the season to #2 USC 3-2 at the Pac-12 North Tournament on Sunday dailybruin.com/2019/04/08/beach-volleyball-loses-winning-streak-to-usc-at-pac-12-north-tournament"In a sense, we’ve been wondering when somebody would challenge us like this and give us our first loss so we could take the opportunity to take a deep look at how we get better," said UCLA head coach Stein Metzger. "It’s a lot easier to make adjustments and to learn from a loss than from a win and it couldn’t be better timing because we go into a two-week period where we don’t have any competition and we get to train." UCLA seniors Nicole McNamara and Megan McNamara lost 21-16, 21-11 to USC’s Abril Bustamante and Tina Graudina on court one, running a 1-2 record against the Trojan pair this season. "They’re tall and very physical, so we always know that we’re going to have a battle when we play against them," said Nicole McNamara. "We were just off this morning and that’s the type of team that we can’t be off when we play against them because they’ll make us pay for it." The dual was decided in a three-set battle on court three, where senior Zana Muno and freshman Abby Van Winkle fell 21-16, won 21-10, and lost 15-13 to Haley Hallgren and Alexandra Poletto. "After playing (USC), they definitely went out of my comfort zone and did things we were not expecting,” said Abby Van Winkle.

Sponcil’s trademarks are speedy defense, accurate hand-sets and a great sense of humor volleyballmag.com/sponcil-040719"I’m getting the best sets in collegiate beach volleyball,” said Lily Justine. "She really brings fire and passion, she’s super strategic and knows where to set me, where to put the ball." UCLA head coach appreciates Sarah Sponcil on and off the sand. "She’s a great connector. She’s a fun spirit, she’s got a great sense of humor, which you don’t really notice that when she plays," said coach Stein Metzger. "She doesn’t really look like somebody with a great sense of humor, she’s just a fierce competitor. But off the court, she’s extremely fun, she’s welcoming, easy to be around."
