UCLA (9-4, 2-2 Pac-12) led from start to finish in set one, scoring the match's first five points on a Rogers/May block, a Buechler/Gates roof and three Washington State errors. At 9-4, two Mosser kills, a Rogers solo block and a WSU error put UCLA up 13-4. The Bruins' lead reached double figures for the first time at 15-5 and went as high as 14 at 24-10. The Cougars saved the first two set points, but a Mosser kill completed a 25-12 victory. Mosser was error-free with five kills in nine swings, while Gates added three kills. Muno tallied six digs. The Bruins hit .357 and held the Cougars to a -.133 percentage.
ย
Washington State (12-4, 1-3 Pac-12) scored three of the first four of set two, and led by one as late as 6-5, but a 4-1 Bruin run on three Mosser kills and one by Buechler gave the home team the lead for good. At 15-10, UCLA scored four in a row on kills by Buechler, Gates and May and a bad set by WSU. The lead got to double digits for the first time at 22-12, as the Bruins scored the last five points of the set on kills by Buechler and Sponcil, a Buechler ace, a Gates/Sponcil block and a Mosser kill to win the second 25-12. Buechler was error-free with six kills in 11 attempts, Mosser added five kills and May was 4-for-5 with no miscues. Muno posted seven digs. The Bruins out-hit the Cougars .421-.156.
ย
The Bruins jumped out to an 8-2 lead in set three on three Buechler kills, two May aces, a Rogers ace and two Cougar errors, and led by as many as five as late as 17-12 before a big comeback by the visitors. Washington State scored six straight to take its first lead of the set at 18-17. Two Mosser kills put the Bruins back up, but the next four went to Washington State to give the Cougars a 22-19 edge.

The Bruins' lead got to eight at 13-5 before the Cougars had thoughts of another comeback thanks to a 5-0 run. But UCLA netted the next three on kills by Mosser and May and a WSU error and led by at least five for the rest of the set. At 21-13, the Bruins scored the last four on two Buechler kills, a Cougar attack error and a Sponcil/Gates block to wrap up the 25-13 win. Buechler was error-free in the fourth with seven kills in 14 attempts, while May added three kills. Sponcil had five digs. The Bruins hit .371 to the Cougars' .000 clip.
