The red-hot Cougar volleyball team entered this week riding high. Winners of six of their last seven games, Washington State was looking to keep that momentum rolling into the final week of the season. Instead, the Cougs started their last homestand of the year with a tough five-set loss to UCLA.
The first three sets were tight, back-and-forth affairs. They were all decided by four points or fewer, but unfortunately for the Cougs, the Bruins found themselves with the 2-1 edge heading into the fourth set. With their backs against the wall, however, WSU delivered in a big way.
