Lost to #5 Pepperdine in three in front of 913 fans in Mallibu. None of the sets were close. 20-25, 19-25, 17-25. Stanford hit .173, Pepperdine hit .580. Basically, it was ugly.
Pepperdine is a tough team. UCLA (21-1) finally lost a match, to Pepperdine, 3-2. Both teams are excellent. We're just not there yet.
The two teams play again at 6 p.m. Stanford's ranking on Monday was #14. Might go down another spot or two this upcoming Monday.
I wouldn't count on MVB for an NCAA championship this year.
