After splitting the first two sets, Cal State L.A. took control of the match with a tight win in the third frame.

Cal State L.A. then finished strongly and closed out the match. The Golden Eagles broke a 9-9 tie with six straight points and never looked back. An attack error gave the Golden Eagles the lead for good and two aces by Lofrano and kills by Silveyra and Boggs fueled the run.

Seattle Pacific got as close as 18-15, but that was it. A block by Alexandra Bura and Bero that followed a kill by Lofrano boosted the lead back to 20-15. A kill by Lofrano got the Golden Eagles to match point and a kill by Lofrano following a Seattle Pacific sideout ended the match.

The Golden Eagles had their chances against nationally-ranked Regis earlier in the day, but could not put the Rams away. Cal State L.A. took the second and third sets, but fell behind quickly in the fourth set and then faltered in the fifth.

It was more of the same in the third set as the Golden Eagles jumped out to a 20-12 lead and never looked back. A kill by Loreal Carter got the Golden Eagles to set point at 24-15 and a kill by Boggs gave Cal State L.A. a 2-1 sets lead.

The situation was completely reversed in the final two sets as the Golden Eagles fell behind early and had to try to rally. Regis opened up early leads of 10-2 and 16-7 while taking the fourth set and evening the match.

In the fifth set, back-to-back kills by Bero and a Regis attack error gave the Golden Eagles a 5-4 lead, but Regis scored the next four points to take the lead for good.
