MORAGA, Calif. – Saint Mary's Volleyball (9-14, 5-9 WCC) is hitting its stride as the college volleyball season begins to wind down. An extremely young team at the start of the season, the team has grown together as the year has worn on, and is now playing some of the best volleyball they've displayed all season. With four contests left, the Gaels will look to finish the season on a high note, as they will host Pepperdine (14-10, 11-3 WCC) before heading south to nearby Santa Clara (8-16, 4-11 WCC) in the second from the last week of the season.
