MORAGA, Calif. — On Friday afternoon, Saint Mary's hit the sand courts on campus for their first beach dual of the 2021 spring, taking on Oregon.

That streak continued on Friday as Saint Mary's won all five matches and an exhibition to sweep Oregon 5-0 to begin their year, giving Oregon its second loss on the season.
The Gaels ran their winning streak to five matches in a row overall dating back to 2020 with a convincing win over Oregon.
