COACH SUSIE TERRUSA SAID
"I'm really proud of the team and how we played tonight. This is the first time we've beaten Cal Poly in seven years. We stuck with our game plan, served well, blocked well and passed well. We've improved every match throughout the season and have lost some close matches so it's nice to get a win against a very good Cal Poly team."
FIRST SET
In the first set, Cal Poly led by as many as four at 9-5 lead before the Matadors engineered an 8-1 run, capped by a Waggoner kill, to go ahead 13-10. The visitors regained the lead with an 8-3 run that forced a CSUN timeout at 18-16. Cal Poly maintained a two-point edge at 19-17 and at 20-18 when another Waggoner kill fueled a set-clinching 7-2 run giving the Matadors the 25-22 win.
SECOND SET
CSUN held a pair of two-point leads early in the secons set before extending the lead to four at 13-9 lead following a block from Hunter and Orshoff. An ensuing 4-0 run by the Mustangs knotted the score at 13-13 and the teams would trade sideouts until Cal Poly went ahead 18-17 on a Kristina Jordan kill. Cal Poly still led by one at 21-20 when a Mustang service error sent the Matadors on a 5-0 run to close the set 25-21.
THIRD SET
Cal Poly bounced back in the third set, hitting .394 to lead from start-to-finish. The Mustangs scored seven of the first eight points and would not look back in cutting the Matador lead to two sets to one following the 25-13 win.
FOURTH SET
In the fourth set, the Matadors took a 6-3 lead before the Mustangs scored three straight points to tie it at 6. Tied 9-9, a 3-1 run by CSUN opened up a 13-10 lead following a McLeod ace. Cal Poly pulled within one at 14-13 and neither team would lead by more than two until CSUN put together a 3-1 run to open up a 21-17 lead. The Matadors would extend the lead to 23-18 before the Mustangs rallied to cut the lead to 23-22. CSUN would get a kill from Orshoff to set up match point at 24-22 and after Cal Poly saved one match point, Hunter connected for a kill to send the Matadors to the 25-23 victory.
