MORAGA, Calif. — Back on the beach courts for the first time in nearly a month, Saint Mary's Beach Volleyball got a great test right out of the gate against #12 Stanford. These teams met in early March when the Gaels were last in beach competition, and Saint Mary's nearly pulled off an impressive five-match win over the Cardinal. Unfortunately for the Gaels, they once again wound up on the wrong side of a 3-2 decision, with Stanford walking away the victors in Moraga, sending Saint Mary's to 2-3 on the season overall and 0-2 against a tough Stanford team.
