THOUGHTS FROM FRANCISCO 
vs. SJSU
"We are very excited to compete against a familiar opponent from the 2017 season in SJSU. After a competitive match with Saint Mary's last Saturday, we are looking to build on that momentum for another good result. Our first two flights, Julia/Anna and Haley/Carly, are hitting their stride while our threes and fours will be looking at new matchups. Shannon/Pi'ikea will be competing at the fives after a tough 3-set loss against the Gaels.  

vs. Pacific
Pacific presents a very athletic, aggressive squad that we get to measure our progress against. After playing them three weeks ago at the Stanford tournament, we look to do a better job with our ball control and disrupt their rhythm."

WHAT'S NEXT
The Dons final dual in March will be against Cal on March 30. First serve is set for noon in Berkeley, Calif.
