LONG BEACH – A huddle disbanded as limbs collapsed to Walter Pyramid’s floor in sheer jubilation.
Senior outside hitter Ethan Champlin, his final swing now adorned in glory, side-stepped to his fall on the service line.
The ball cradled in Skyler Varga’s palms at the net as he arced the ball back toward the Bruins.
It took a moment.
The Beach’s outside hitter paused for contemplation – followed by an unforgiving grasp of reality as his eyes drank in a vibrant mound of blue and gold rejoicing on his home floor.

More than 300 pro-Palestine protests have erupted across American college campuses since early April, resulting in at least 2,000 arrests or detainments nationwide.
Although these protests are all driven by solidarity with Palestine, they have resulted in differing administrative responses, levels of law enforcement involvement and student reactions.
Days after the sweep of the now-dismantled Palestine solidarity encampment, undergraduate and law students question UCLA’s plan to keep most exams in person next week.
Students at the UCLA School of Law are about to enter their second week of finals, and though some professors have moved their exams to take-home, the law school has remained open and running from last week and through May 10.

Dear “Chancellor” Gene Block:
As the mother of a senior who is on the cusp of graduation after four tumultuous years, I watch with utter horror from across the country.
