The Lancers finished the first round of SCC play at 6-1, and are in second place in the conference after first-place El Camino (7-0) went five games to beat now third place Mt. San Antonio (5-2). PCC improved to 14-2 overall.

Sophomore outside hitter Ella Moe slammed 10 kills in just 14 attempts with no errors. Middle blocker Jackie Valle-Acosta added nine kills while sophomore setter Jessica Xu (pictured) handed out 24 assists in just two sets of action. Sophomore middle blocker Stacey Diaz contributed a season-high seven kills.
