UCSD-A showed up and showed out for league championships, fighting and taking 2nd place in Women’s Division 1! The day started out with battles in pool play, with the team taking a close 2-set win over their 4th match against UCSB this season, and a 3-set win over Utah Valley. This launched us into the semi-finals, where we faced cross-town rivals SDSU, who we previously lost to for the WRC Championship. We sailed past them in 2 sets, ending 25-15 in the second set. We faced ASU in the championship game where we fell in 2 sets after a long, tiring day. Although we may not have taken home the title, we left Temecula with smiles on our faces as we reflected on our growth and progress throughout the season. From entering the fall classic with nearly half of our players missing and starting off the season unranked to fighting for championship titles these past 2 tournaments and clinching the 13th seed for Nationals, it is clear that our grit and determination this season has paid off and made us stronger as individuals and as a team. We are taking everything we have learned from this season and will be chasing gold at Nationals next week! GO TRITONS!
