The No. 12 Pepperdine Men’s Volleyball team came out on top in a hard, but well-fought battle against the No. 15 USC Trojans.
The Waves outplayed USC all over the court, posting 57 kills on a .303 success rate and letting the Trojans amass only 49 kills on a .220 success rate — thanks to 13 team blocks. USC and Pepperdine exchanged set wins for four, 25-19, 24-26, 26-16 and 22-25, but the Waves were able to stick it out with a 15-10 win in the fifth and final set to secure the victory.
