Beach Volleyball Back to Winning Ways with Pair of Victories over Mounties, Lancers

HERMOSA BEACH, Calif. – El Camino College bounced back from last week's loss with a pair of dominant wins Friday over Mount San Antonio and Pasadena City Club at Hermosa Beach, Calif.

The Warriors opened the day with a 5-0 win over the Mounties although it did not come easy as the matches between the No. 1's and No. 2's both went the distance and each required some extra volleyball to get the victories.

In the second match of the day, the Warriors cruised to four straight-set wins and then got a walkover in the fifth match as PC Club did not field a No. 5 squad.

The Warriors will return to action on April 6 as they take part in a dual match against Rio Hondo and Golden West at Golden West College.
