Lost 3-0 to Pepperdine. That has been their history this year, win one then lose one. I guess they can beat anyone but it will be tough to win the championship that way.

Make that 8 in a row! I think the Cougs are peaking at the right time. They're looking good, and I think we may see them in the final 4 again this year!
