Coyotes, Broncos to square off in regional final
One l ocal team is going to be ecstatic this time tomorrow night.
The other will be in tears.
The volleyball teams from Cal Poly Pomona and Cal State San Bernardino both took care of business, winning their respective West Region semifinals Friday night at Cal State's Coussoulis Arena.
The third-seeded Broncos took care of Cal State Los Angeles - 25-12, 25-13, 17-25, 19-25, 15-13. They played as perfect as a team could play in the first two games, then had to hold on for dear life.
The top-seeded Coyotes took care of Chico State 25-19, 25-15, 25-21. They haven't lost a game in either of their two matches and have the top player in the conference in Jessica Granados.
The teams split this season, each winning at home. And the Coyotes are 16-0 at home. So give them the edge. They have also been there before. This will be their ninth straight trip to the regional final.
Good for the Inland Empire.
First serve is 7 p.m.
