Cal State LA-CSUN Box Score
NORTHRIDGE, Calif. - The CSUN Beach Volleyball team got back in the win column Tuesday as the Matadors topped Cal State LA, 4-1 in a non-conference dual at the CSUN Beach Volleyball Complex.
The Matadors (2-4), who had yet to drop a set to the Golden Eagles in three previous dual matches, claimed the first two matches in short order. Nicole Nevarez and Lexi McLeod earned CSUN's first point with a quick 21-12, 21-2 victory over Victoria Duarte and Jeshmarie Suarez at No. 4. Darbi Honeycutt and Mikaela Maughan made it 2-0 Matadors, defeating Janessa Mata and Jessica Kaeka, 23-21, 21-12 in the No. 2 match.
The second flight of matches got underway with Cassidy Rosso and Kailey Klein clinching the dual win for CSUN with a 21-8, 21-12 win over Caitlyn Bato and Adriana Maldonado at No. 5. Taylor Brydon and Lauren McMurray then made it 4-0 Matadors as the No. 3 match went final, 21-8, 21-12 over Sifa Faaiu and Daisy Crenshaw.
The No. 1 match on center court would go the distance as the Golden Eagle pair of Karla Santos and Alejandra Negron came back after dropping the first set to knock off CSUN's Daniella Molinari and Seyvion Waggoner 15-21, 21-13, 15-13.
COACH NOELLE ROOKE SAID
"Sometimes the volleyball isn't always clean but if we're working on incorporating the things we do in practice into our match play, I know we'll continue to improve. After the adversity we faced last weekend, I'm proud of the win we earned today. Saturday's Pairs Tournament will be a good indicator of the progress we've made in our training the last few weeks."Â

The Matadors travel up the coast Saturday to take part in the Pairs Tournament with Cal Poly and CSU Bakersfield at Pismo Beach.
