Cal @ UCLA Senior Day
Today, we celebrate our four amazing seniors! Desiree Becker, Kate Lane, Iman Ndiaye and Audrey Pak
Sunday, Nov 19 noon PT
- Last week, Cal lost to Oregon State 1-3 and Oregon 2-3. On Friday, they lost 1-3 to USC. It's very unlikely that they make the tournament (#77 in modified rpi)
- UCLA beat Washington State 3-2 and Washington 3-1. On Friday, they lost 2-3 to Stanford. They'll probably be in the tournament (#43 in modified rpi, 0.5971, 1 top 25 win, 1 26-50 win)

Will UCLA have a let down after that great battle vs. Stanford? It is possible, but most likely they take care of business here.

Kate Lane playing middle. Anna Dodson out.
I'm pretty sure she got a concussion during that Stanford game. She took a hit to the head and they were checking her for signa, but she said she was okay. Could be big if she's not available for the USC game next week.

Could be big if she's not available for the USC game next week. Kate Lane is a warrior. Looks like she is playing middle for Anna with a broken finger or two. If she decides to play another year, somebody is getting a good one. Will miss this group of seniors. Enjoyed watching Iman, Audrey and Kate over the years and appreciate what Desiree brought to the team this year. Hopefully, Bruins finish strong on senior night.

Cal up 2-1. May be shutting the door on the post-season for UCLA (though to be fair - a lot of UCLA's issues this season have been self-inflicted before today).

Cal puts the nail in UCLA's coffin.

Well, perhaps the committee will be kind. Olson, good set, kinda softly throws it over, and well, Cal converted.
However, don't forget that if UCLA sweeps next weekend, then they still finish 5-3, and are probably in.

I would think now they need to finish off with two wins.
