For Beach, it's
fun at No. 1
Staff reports
A victory over
top-ranked Nebraska to open the season, a grueling five-game
win over No. 18 UC Santa Barbara two weeks ago and lastly
a four-set triumph over No. 4 Stanford Friday.
For the Long Beach State women's volleyball team, these results
have added up to one thing: an undisputed No. 1 ranking in
the nation.
The 49ers (9-0 overall, 3-0 in the Big West Conference) are
ranked No. 1 in the AVCA/USA Today/Coaches poll released earlier
this week. Couple this with The Beach's No. 1 ranking in Volleyball
Magazine -- which has had LBSU ranked No. 1 for the first
month of the season -- and the 49ers now hold the elite status
of being the top-ranked team in both major polls.
This is the first time since 1998 the 49ers have been ranked
No. 1 in both polls. 1998 was also the year LBSU went 36-0
and claimed the national championship.
The Beach will take its lofty ranking on the road this weekend
with Big West matches against No. 12 Pacific Thursday in Stockton
and Cal State Northridge Saturday in Northridge.
