Stanford takes on LSU in the final quarterfinal of the 2024 NCAA Tournament of beach volleyball today.
The final quarterfinal of the day features third-seeded Stanford (32-5) and 11th-seeded LSU (26-11) both looking to punch a ticket to the semifinals. In the first round, the Tigers pulled off their first upset of the tournament to get to the quarterfinals today. They will need three more upsets to earn the school’s first championship in college beach volleyball as not only the lowest seed in the event, but the only double-digit seed left in the field. The Tigers fell short in the CCSA Tournament, but have the opportunity to be the final team standing from the conference in the NCAA Tournament this season. The Cardinal with a win could be one of three teams in the semifinals from the vaunted Pac-12 this season.

The winner of this match will move on to play in the semifinals against the winner of second-seeded UCLA and seventh-seeded California. This side of the bracket is down to three Pac-12 schools, three California schools and the Tigers who are looking to crash the party.
In the first round of the tournament, the Cardinal cruised to a win over 14th-seeded Georgia State winning 3-0 to advance while the Tigers needed a five-set match against sixth-seeded TCU to earn their way with a 3-2 win in the first round.
These teams played once earlier in the season during the Death Valley Invitational. The Cardinal ultimately won that tournament defeating three of four teams that ultimately ended up in the NCAA Tournament. Against the Tigers in particular, the Cardinal swept their five-set match, but needed two three-match wins along the way in a much more competitive match than the 5-0 final score indicated.
