Thumbs up for sweeping the #1 ranked team. | T.J. Breshears/VBelo

Three Intriguing Matches

1. BYU at Stanford - This is a fantastic matchup in the MPSF. Round 1 went to the Cougars in OT in the fifth set. With a healthy Will Rottman, you can never count out the Cardinal, however. This one is going to be another great match to watch.

2. Benedict at Kentucky State - This is the closest VBelo match of the day in this key SIAC match. The battle for the top spot in the conference is just getting started so this could get interesting!

3. Long Beach at UCSB - Round one yesterday was tightly contested but Long Beach came out ahead in four. With the home-court advantage, seeing if UCSB can pull off the major upset will be interesting.
