The Cal (#8) v. LBSU (#9) matchup did not disappoint - it took the completion of all five courts and a third set match on Court 4 to decide this matchup, with Cal ultimately winning 3-2 in the opening round of the NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship on May 1, 2026 in Gulf Shores, Alabama. #ncaabeachvb #ncaabeach #ncaabeachvolleyball
