Though the Gauchos fell 3-1 to Long Beach on the road in October, they took the opportunity for a November win with determination.\u00a0Their victory over the Beach places them at third in the conference, only behind Cal Poly and UC Davis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Beach landed the first point of the match, but that would be the only lead they would see during the first set. The Gauchos responded with a subsequent six points in a row to get a 6-1 start. Before the Beach knew it, it was 9-3, then 14-6. The Gauchos had the first done at 25-21. Here, McDermott led the match in kills with five totaled. .<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Gauchos also finished the second set 25-21. The set was tighter than the first, during which the Gauchos had a lead of up to eight points. Santa Barbara vaguely led through the second, and it wasn&#8217;t until 23-19 that their win became imminent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Long Beach had their moment in the third, getting ahead early on and maintaining their head start throughout. The Beach led for all of the third, replicating Santa Barbara&#8217;s motion from the first, and took it 25-18.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Gauchos were back to their regularly scheduled programming in the fourth, as they got ahead early, led by several points for the duration, and closed the match 25-14.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>STAT RECAP\u00a0<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/ucsbgauchos.com\/sports\/womens-volleyball\/roster\/gabi-martinez\/7440\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7440\" target=\"_blank\">Gabi Martinez<\/a> crushed once again, landing 18 kills for the third time in four matches.
