GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) — Sammy Slater dropped in a service ace to clinch the deciding match for USC and seal its 3-1 win over UCLA in the beach volleyball duals national championship on Sunday.
USC (30-4) won its third NCAA beach volleyball title in its fourth championship appearance. The Trojans lost back-to-back duals against UCLA (32-5) in the Pac-12 Tournament — the first of which snapped USC’s 12-match win streak — on May 1.
The Bruins had won the previous two national titles in 2018 and 2019.
Slater, an AVCA all-America selection, and Julia Scoles — a graduate transfer from Hawaii — clinched the title with a 26-24, 21-15 win over UCLA’s Lea Monkhouse and Devon Newberry which culminated with Slater’s ace.
