History

SEATTLE — The University of San Diego women’s volleyball team extended its perfect start to West Coast Conference play on Saturday afternoon as it notched its eighth straight win, defeating Seattle U 3–1 (25–17, 25–10, 21–25, 25–20) inside the Redhawk Center.

With the win, San Diego improved to 15–4 overall and 8–0 in WCC action, while the Redhawks dropped to 6–12 (0–7 WCC).

BEACH FUELS EARLY SURGE
Senior outside hitter Nemo Beach led all players with 21 kills on .385 hitting, adding five aces and four digs for a 28-point performance. The Toreros opened strong behind Beach and middle blocker BayLea Sparks, who combined for 10 kills in the first set as USD hit .464 to take a 25–17 win.

A DOMINANT SECOND SET
San Diego kept rolling in set two, firing at a .579 clip and holding Seattle U to a −.143 hitting percentage. Beach again paced the offense with five kills and two aces, while setter Kylie Munday distributed 13 assists in the frame. USD used an 11-1 run midway through the set to pull away for a 25–10 victory and a 2–0 match lead.

REDHAWKS ANSWER IN THE THIRD
Seattle U regrouped to edge the Toreros 25–21 in the third, hitting .317 behind Teagan Melton’s four kills and Yasemin Elmas’ three. Despite 18 USD kills in the set, the Redhawks used timely serving and strong defense to force a fourth frame.

FINISHING THE JOB
The Toreros re-established control in set four. Ava Durgan contributed eight kills on .333 hitting, and Isabel Clark added 14 kills (.344) and seven digs on the match. A Beach service ace capped a 25–20 clincher as USD closed out its eighth consecutive conference victory.
