Pepperdine Shines, Bruins Struggle Pepperdine continued to roll over the weekend, confirming that their No. 1 ranking is deserved. They once again handled CSUN, beating them 3-1. Seems the Waves have hit their stride. CSUN beat USC for the second time this season, clearly continuing their dominance over the Trojans with their 16th consecutive win in the match up. The Matadors moved back up the ranks of the AVCA Coaches Poll to No. 3 this week. Worst weekend honors go to UCLA. The No. 3 Bruins got skunked 0-3 by both No. 9 Long Beach State and No. 14 UC San Diego. UCLA falls two spots in the poll while Long Beach jumps up three spots.

AVP Announcements Minus One Two big news items out of the AVP this week. The Tour named beach VB legend Mike Dodd the league's new commissioner. He'll be responsible for overseeing "all competition, athlete welfare and sport development." Also, the 2010 tour schedule is out and it lists 12 event locations for this summer. No tourney scheduled as yet in Las Vegas this year to the chagrin of many fans and a few less tournaments than last year. Some of the details are less than solid, but it is good news that they are moving forward. One announcement that they didn't make was who their new title sponsor will be since Crocs pulled out last year. With the start of the season right around the corner that could mean trouble. Beach volleyball fans should hope that's the next announcement we hear. AVP Announcements Minus One originally appeared on About.com Volleyball on Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 at 11:08:52.
And UCLA's New Head Coach Is... No more speculation required regarding who will take over as the women's head coach over in Westwood after the retirement of Andy Banachowski, the program's head for the last 43 years. UCLA decided to keep it in the family, hiring former Bruin Mike Sealy to lead the team. Sealy was a three-time All-American setter for UCLA back in the 90's and led the team to a national championship in 1993. Since then he assistant coached for both the UCLA men (2003-2006) and women (2005) before heading to Hawaii to serve as Dave Shoji's associate head coach for the last four years. I'm not surprised that UCLA decided to give it one of their own. Sealy comes to the job knowing exactly what he's walking into and what kind of legacy he's been asked to continue there. He's capable and qualified and should be able to breathe new life into the program. But for his first solo head coaching position, this one is a doozy.

Pepperdine Does It Again When it comes to beating the top-ranked teams, no one is doing it better (or more often) than Pepperdine this season. In 2010 they've managed to beat the top-ranked teams repeatedly and in fine fashion. A few let down losses kept them outside the top five all season. That is until now. Last week the Waves took on No. 2 USC for the second time this season. And for the second time, they took the Trojans down - this time in three straight sets. Looks like Pepperdine has the hot hand, but let's hope they don't peak too early. Save some for the playoffs, guys! Pepperdine moves up three spots in this week's AVCA poll to No. 4. Despite their two wins over the Trojans, Pepperdine still doesn't outrank USC who landed at No. 3. Stanford was also on the move this week. After decisive wins over UCI (four sets) and UCLA (three sets), the Cardinal moved back into the No. 2 spot after two weeks down at No. 5. Good wins to get under their belt as they'll now hit the road for seven of their next 11 matches.
