The former led the team with 13 kills, the only Tiger (3-2) above ten kills on the night, on an efficient .244 hitting percentage. Combined with ten digs defensively and the outside hitter notched her fourth straight double-double.<\/p>\n<p>Kemle meanwhile tallied eight kills on a .500 clip to set a new personal best. Completing the bulk of the Pacific attack was sophomore <a href=\"https:\/\/pacifictigers.com\/sports\/womens-volleyball\/roster\/julia-porath\/6069\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"6069\" target=\"_blank\">Julia Porath<\/a> and her nine kills and sophomore <a href=\"https:\/\/pacifictigers.com\/sports\/womens-volleyball\/roster\/alessia-couchond\/6060\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"6060\" target=\"_blank\">Alessia Couchond&#8217;s<\/a> 25 assists as the primary setter and three service aces.<\/p>\n<p>Sophomore libero <a href=\"https:\/\/pacifictigers.com\/sports\/womens-volleyball\/roster\/bella-gutierrez\/6063\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"6063\" target=\"_blank\">Bella Gutierrez<\/a> again led the team in the digs category, this time adding 11 to her season ledger. Sitting now at 88 digs she&#8217;s on pace to hit 528 come season&#8217;s end, which would put her second in program history in a single season.<\/p>\n<p>Pacific concludes the SJSU Invite tomorrow with a program first match against LSU New Orleans, who got swept by UC Riverside in their opening match earlier in the day. First serve from Spartan Gym is set for 6 p.m. but will not be streamed, meaning fans will need to follow along via live stats or social media.<\/p>\n<p>Tigers Tickets<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nTickets for upcoming events can be purchased through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pacifictigers.com\/sports\/2021\/10\/19\/tickets.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">PacificTigers.com<\/a>\u00a0tickets tab, or by calling the Box Office at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pacifictigers.com\/news\/2026\/9\/4\/tel:209-946-2474\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">209-946-2474<\/a>.\u00a0 Groups of 10 or more are eligible for a group discount and exclusive fan experiences.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nStay Social<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nFor all the latest on Pacific Volleyball, be sure to follow the team on X (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PacificVball\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@PacificVball<\/a>), Instagram (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pacificvolleyball\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@pacificvolleyball<\/a>) and Facebook page (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PacificWomensVolleyball\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Pacific Volleyball<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>#PacificProud<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>                <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; Next Match: vs. LSU New Orleans 9\/5\/2026 | 6 P.M. &#13; Sep. 05 (Sat) \/&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":454184,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[88,90,89],"class_list":["post-454183","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=454183"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454183\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/454184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=454183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=454183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=454183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
