The first ticket to the Pac-12 Championship will be punched by either UCLA or USC today.
When the brackets were released for the 2024 Pac-12 Championship this was the most anticipated matchup. Top seeded USC with its four Pac-12 titles in beach volleyball taking on second-seed UCLA, the defending champions, has the potential to be the match of the year at this stage in the season. The winner here moves on to the championship match while the loser will slide down to the Contenders Bracket to play one more match for the opportunity to set up a rematch for the 2024 Pac-12 Championship in college beach volleyball. That match in the Contenders Bracket will be against either third-seeded Stanford or sixth-seeded Arizona State who are the last remaining teams in the tournament.
