UCLA (9-5, 4-3 Pac-12) had something to prove after getting swept at home by Oregon last weekend. They did that by dominating the Sun Devils on Wednesday night, winning 25-13, 25-20, 25-14 to notch the 1,300th victory in program history.
Arizona (14-4, 3-3 Pac-12) had to hope that UCLA was in for a letdown if the Wildcats didn’t want to be number 1,301 on the list of the vanquished.
That didn’t happen. The Bruins were able to win the important points in a tight three-set match, handing the Wildcats their third straight loss.
The match officially went down as a sweep, but both the stats and the final score of 26-24, 25-22, 25-23 tell the story of a hard-fought contest.
