LAST TIME OUT:
In a busy three-game week, Long Beach State bounced back against Santa Clara after dropping the first two dual matches to No. 39 Princeton and Big West foe, Hawai'i. Against Santa Clara, LBSU came out firing and ended their week with a masterful performance by sweeping the Broncos at Rhodes Tennis Center.

During the Beach's conference dual match against Hawai'i, it was a back-and-forth battle from both respective teams. The Beach took the doubles point but LBSU fell short in a close three-set deciding match.

TENNIS TRADITION:
The traditional player cheer pre-match and each time the team wins a match point is "Here We Go Beach" followed by all supporters in attendance then cheering the same "Here We Go Beach!"
