After wrapping up their preseason with two road wins last weekend, LMU Women’s Volleyball (7-4, 0-0 West Coast Conference) returns home to Gersten Pavilion this weekend to open West Coast Conference (WCC) play against rival Pepperdine University (8-5, 0-0 WCC) this Saturday, Sept. 23.
The Lions and the Waves compete each year in the PCH Cup: a competition in which NCAA-sponsored athletic contests between the two schools are scored and tallied cumulatively over the academic year. In the 2016-2017 season, LMU won the Cup 12-9.5, and enter 2017-2018 with the title and the bragging rights. Pepperdine currently holds a 1-0 lead in this year’s standings after a victory in men's water polo.
