2 Around The Big West It All Comes Down To This As we enter the final week of conference play, one match separates first place Cal State Fullerton (12-2) and second place Long Beach State (11-3). Both teams close out Big West action facing Cal State Northridge and UC Irvine, who combine for a 7-20 Big West record. The Titans are in the driver s seat with a one-match advantage. Cal State Fullerton, riding a seven-match win streak, must win one of their final two contests to secure at least a share of the 2010 Big West championship, the first in school history. If the Titans are able to tally a pair of wins this weekend, they will garner sole-possession of the league title. If Long Beach State and Cal State Fullerton conclude the year knotted for first place, the 49ers would receive the conference s automatic qualifier to the NCAA Tournament due to a head-to-head tiebreaker. Long Beach State swept the series versus the Titans this year. Cal Poly, sitting third with an 11-4 mark, has a slim shot of sharing a piece of the title. If the Mustangs win their final contest against UC Riverside and Cal State Fullerton and Long Beach State are unsuccessful in their final stretch there is a possibility of a potential two-way or three-way tie at Crowning The Champion Of the nine current members in the Big West Conference, four of them have captured at least one Big West title- Cal Poly, Long Beach State, UC Santa Barbara and Pacific. Long Beach State leads the quartet with nine conference championships, followed by UC Santa Barbara and Pacific with five apiece. The Mustangs round out the field with three titles. NCAA Selection Show The field of 64 teams for the 2010 NCAA Women s Volleyball Tournament will be unveiled on ESPNews at noon (PST) on Sunday, Nov. 28. The 2010 first and second round host sites will also be announced during the selection show while the Regional and Final sites are predetermined. This year s Regional sites include Austin, Texas, Dayton, Ohio, Seattle, Wash., and University Park, Pa., with the finals taking place at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo., December 16 &18. The Big 2-0 Two weeks ago Cal State Fullerton cracked the 20-win mark for the first time in school history. The Titans, winners of 20 of their last 22, now own a 24-5 overall record. They also posted a school record 12th conference win after sweeping UC Riverside on Saturday. The Titans reached the doubledigit quota in dominating fashion, sweeping all but three of their opponents (Cal Poly twice, UC Davis and Pacific). Long Beach State and Cal Poly also joined the elite club last week as both teams registered a 2-0 mark to elevate them to 21 wins. While the 49ers posted their seventh-straight 20-win season, this marks the first 20-win season for the Mustangs since It is also a vast improvement over last season s Cal Poly squad that registered an overall mark of All three teams are still in the hunt for the 2010 Big West Women s Volleyball championship. Gimmillaro Goes For 700 This weekend Long Beach State head coach Brian Gimmillaro goes for his 700th career victory. Entering the week sitting at 699, he needs just one more victory to reach the 700-win threshold. When Gimmillaro records his next victory, he will become just the ninth Division I active head coach to reach 700 career wins. He also owns an.805 winning percentage, which ranks him in the Top 10 among active coaches. Gimmillaro, currently in his 26th year of coaching, accumulated all 699 wins at the helm of the Long Beach State squad. Among The Big West League-leading Cal State Fullerton continues to dominate in the Big West team statistics, leading the way in five categories. The Titans are hitting.259, while registering kills, 1.33 service aces and digs per set. With the assistance of setter Andrea Ragan, who paces the league with an average, the Titans also top the chart in assists with assists per set. Individually, the top spots are scattered among the Big West members. UC Davis Betsy Sedlak continues to rank first in hitting percentage with a.399 clip. Svenja Engelhardt, who normally leads Pacific and the Big West in service aces, is the conference s kills leader with a 4.43 average. She still is impressive at the service line, posting a fifth-best average of.26. The blocks category is led by freshman Haleigh Hampton, who paces the 49ers and the Big West with 1.56 blocks per set. Hampton currently ranks among the Top 5 in the country. The Elusive W UC Riverside, the lone team yet to tally a conference win, is 0-14 in conference play after posting a 0-2 record last week. This week the Highlanders host central coast opponents, Cal Poly and UC Santa Barbara, in their final Big West matches of the season. UC Riverside is also the only team unable to post a road victory this year. Home Court Advantage Cal State Fullerton has proven it is a force to be reckoned with when battling on its home court, Titan Gym. The Titans, who concluded the home portion of its schedule last weekend, own an impressive 16-1 record when playing in front of their hometown fans. Their lone home loss came by way of Long Beach State. Also taking full advantage of their hometown fans is Long Beach State. The 49ers are 12-2 when playing at The Walter Pyramid. While the home portion of its conference season has come to an end, LBSU still has three nonconference contests remaining next week when the 49ers host the annual Mizuno Thanksgiving Tournament. The 49ers two home losses this season were a 3-1 defeat to then-ranked No. 25 San Diego and a 3-1 loss to conference foe Cal Poly. CSUN Posts Double-Digit Victories The Matadors (12-17, 4-9 Big West) reached double figures in wins for the sixth time in nine seasons under Jeff Stork and first time since Northridge averaged nearly 15 wins per season over Stork s first three seasons ( ) which included 17 wins and an NCAA Tournament berth in Next up for the Matadors are Cal State Fullerton and Long Beach State, both of which will be making the trek to The Matadome.
