Following a 10-1 start to the season, their best since 2014, the women’s volleyball team entered their first three West Coast Conference (WCC) matches against Gonzaga (4-8 overall, 1-0 WCC), Portland (12-2, 0-2 WCC) and San Diego (5-7 overall, 2-1 WCC).
Seeking their eighth straight victory, the Lions’ winning streak was snapped when they were defeated by Gonzaga in a 0-3 sweep on Thursday, the team’s first time getting swept this season. However, the team bounced back the following match against Portland in a 3-2 victory, splitting their opening two matches of conference play. The Lions now have an overall record of 11-2 and 1-1 in the WCC.
