Title: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: WLCALUM83 on September 17, 2009, 04:08:37 PM
Noticed LaVerne hasn't lost too much of its' step. That squad's made it to the Finals at least twice in the last several years.

ULV had a rough weekend, losing three of four. Hard to imagine the Leos being as good as last year without Brianna Gonzales, who was probably the best OH I saw last year. Crista Jones can't be the only one putting the ball away. We'll find out soon enough if ULV is once again in the national mix. It doesn't get much tougher than the Teri Clemens Invite at Wash U. ULV plays the Nos. 1, 6 and 7 teams in the nation this weekend. My guess is the rankings hold up and ULV goes winless.

All of the traditional West powers – ULV, Trinity, Pac Lu, Cal Lutheran, Puget Sound – appear to be down a bit. My money is still on Southwestern despite its own iffy start. Upstarts UT-Dallas and Austin are intriguing though.

Pacific Lutheran's record is deceptive in that that squad has already played a boatload of ranked opponents.

LaVerne's website indicates that squad lost to 3 nationally ranked oppenents 9/18-19/

In contrast, Pacific Lutheran goes 2-0, defeating George Fox and Pacific-OR

I just wanted to say the Women's Volleyball is one of the most exciting college sports there is. Non-stop action and lots of fun. I was a fan when I went to San Jose State, and now I root for Redlands. Great job ladies!

In its first SCIAC match, Chapman University knocked off  #23 Occidental College in a tightly contested contest by a score of 3-2. Both teams should be factors in the conference this year. OXY is now 7-2 (0-1) and CU is 7-2 (1-0).

CONGRADULATIONS to the Caltech volleyball team for defeating Mills College for their first win of the season.
Caltech travels to Chapman for a match tonight. Chapman defeated UCSC in an important in-region win earlier today.
Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: dahlby on October 24, 2012, 01:09:25 AM
California Lutheran (13-1, 22-4) travels to Chapman (13-1, 21-4) for a rematch (first game won by Chapman) that will put
the winner in the driver's seat for the regular SCIAC season championship and #1 seed and host for the conference tourney.
The winner of the tourney would receive the NCAA auto-bid.

Cal Lu closes its season on Saturday against Caltech (0-14, 1-18) while Chapman closes its season on Saturday at Pomona-
Pitzer (4-10, 9-13).

Friday's game should be very interesting.

Should Chapman's Panthers win the title, it will become the first Chapman team to win a conference title, since Chapman became eligble for such a title this year.

Trinity (TX) defeats Southwestern 25-23, 25-20, 25-20 to win the SCAC.    The Pirates came in with a 12 match winning streak.
Mary Hardin-Baylor defeats UT-Dallas 25-23, 26-24, 23-25, 25-20 to win the ASC. 

The question is whether either UT-D (22-11) or SW (26-8) will warrant a pool C bid.     Southwestern was ranked sixth in last week's regional rankings, but I doubt they'll get a bid now.   If not UHMB and Trinity may match up in the first round with the Lady Cru (25-5) already having a 3-1 win over Trinity early in the season to their credit. 
Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: Ron Boerger on November 10, 2014, 11:43:02 AM
Neither SW or UT-D got a bid, but somewhat surprisingly Colorado College  (not ranked last week, 1-2 since [1-1 D3] including a five-set loss to SW) did.  CC was 0-3 against SW this season but defeated Trinity once; SW was 0-3 against Trinity.   I imagine CC's SOS was better.    All three SCAC/ASC schools are off the the regional at Cal Lu.
Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: Ron Boerger on November 14, 2014, 11:40:52 PM
Both SCAC schools get Round 1 wins:

Colorado College over #20 PLU,  25-18, 27-25, 25-23, 25-19.
Trinity (TX) over (RV) La Verne, 25-20, 25-20, 25-15.

CC gets #17 Claremont-Mudd-Scripps next; Trinity, most likely #3 Cal Lutheran.

Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: Ron Boerger on November 15, 2014, 11:27:40 PM
It'll be C-M-S, a 15-13 victor in the fifth over Colorado, against Trinity (TX), an upset winner in four (26-24, 25-18, 11-25, 25-21) in tomorrow's regional final.
Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: WLCALUM83 on November 16, 2014, 06:21:02 PM
In '13 if memory serves me correctly, didn't Cal Lu knock off Trinity-TX on Trinity's home court? If that's true, this year was a bit of sweet revenge for the Lone Star State squad.
Title: Re: West Region women's volleyball
Post by: Ron Boerger on November 16, 2014, 11:12:05 PM
Yep, but like this year CLU was the higher seed (had to travel instead of host to save travel $).

Unfortunately while Trinity won the battle with CLU, they lost the war, falling to C-M-S in four sets.   The Tigers will lose a lot of their skill players to graduation.
