Cal State LA rallied impressively in the opening set, but fell just short in the end. The Golden Eagles trailed 23-18 and eventually staved off three set points beginning at 24-21. Kills by LaBrie and Santos made it 24-23 and a block by Summer Hansen and Daisy Crenshaw evened the set at 24-24. A kill by Colla and an attack error, though, gave the Tritons the first set.

UC San Diego carried the momentum from there, winning the second set 25-11 and then opening up a quick 7-0 lead in the third set. Cal State LA tried to rally, closing to within 14-10 after a kill by LaBrie. UC San Diego, though, responded by scoring the next four points and never looked back.

Cal State LA will return to action on Friday with a home match against Cal Poly Pomona.
