not really, Loyola did hit really well, tooling blocks and hitting over and around our block

serving was huge, only 8 SEs, and 8 aces was the difference.

with Varga dialed in now, and a few less Service errors, the team is putting just enough more pressure to wilt teams

Larson I thought was just tremendous with his receiving today, he's at the level or even surpassing Briggs in level of play last month, teaking the lead on seam serves and passing great, taking a lot of pressure off of Pazanti

& Bloom again was great, hitting lots of spots as was Varga

next up in the semis vs. Hawaii or USC

with Ball State beating Pepperdine, Ball State is a legit national title contendor, they play IRvine and that'll be a toss up. UCLA dif choked away some swings late ine 5th set and lost a 8-4 lead, ouch. buh-bye Bruins
