Some interesting analysis on VT about quality wins, head-to-head, etc. among the contenders for the last two NCAA bids. Suggests Stanford still has a reasonable shot. Certainly need to do better than Arizona (and Cal) in the Pac-12 tournament.

Pac-12 Championship bracket is out:
https://pac-12.com/article/2021/04/26/usc-claims-top-seed-2021-pac-12-beach-volleyball-championship
Stanford's first match is vs. Cal at 1:15pm Thursday. If they win, they play on Friday at 1:15pm (probably taking on #1 seed USC). If they lose, they play at 8:00am Friday.
Sure hope they beat Cal.

Thanks for the info John. There is a contender's bracket so it takes two losses for a team to be out of the tournament. They show all the matches being shown on PAC12HD. What does that mean? Is that a livestream?
The games are being played at Mapes Beach which is in a recreation center and is UCLA's home courts. There is suppose to be a heat wave in SoCal the end of the week so the weather should be ok.

I found this quote on
https://pac-12.com/beach-volleyball/championships
Quote:The 2021 Pac-12 Beach Volleyball Championships will be held between April 29 - May 1 at Mapes Beach (UCLA) in Los Angeles. Live coverage information on Pac-12 Networks will be announced ahead of the event, with additional coverage across Pac-12.com and the Pac-12 Now app.
... Looking again, I found the following page is updated. If you click in the (i) next to where it says Pac-12 Networks under each item, it shows which of the channels are supposed to be carrying it.

Stanford loses the first set for both the 2s and 4s. 4s had several set points before losing 25-27.

And Sharp & Smith force a third set by winning the second 29-27.

Court 1 Stanford Hodel and Villapando take the first set
RE: Stanford Beach Volleyball -
johnbar - 04-29-2021
Sharp & Smith tie it 1-1.
(Cal had a match point in set 2.)
Hodel & Villapando put Stanford up 2-1.
Villapando will spend her fifth year at USC. But I won't hold that against her.

2-1 Stanford as Hodel abd Villapando win in 2

3s going to third set.
5s up 14-6 in the first.
It all comes down to the 5s, 21-12, 8-3, time out.
Jordan McKinney really has improved.
Stanford wins!
RE: Stanford Beach Volleyball - Softball Fan - 04-29-2021
That was the best played and most exciting college beach match I have seen. I thought the televised production was good with two knowledgeable announcers. Many of the indoor matches only had one PAC-12 announcer.
It will be interesting to see if Hodel/Villapando can take a set from USC tomorrow.
