HISTORY VS. PEPPERDINE

OVERALL: 23-50 | H: 16-20 | A: 7-28 | N: 0-2 | L5: 4-1 | L10: 7-3 Last Meeting...................................... 11/19/16 at LMU | LMU W, 3-1 Last Pepperdine Win............... 9/26/15 at Pepperdine | PEP W, 3-2 First Meeting.......................................... 9/3/82 at LMU | LMU W, 2-0 Notable....... LMU has won 7 of last 10 after dropping previous 12

FIFTH SET WINS ARE ELUSIVE! The five-set heartbreaking loss to #10 BYU to finish the 2016 season proved to be a fitting summary of the luck LMU had in five-set contests last season, as the Lions went 0-6 in such contests, including 0-4 at home ... as if the losses weren't enough, LMU won the first two sets in three of those six setbacks (9/27 vs. #6 San Diego; 10/27 vs. Pacific; 11/22 vs. #10 BYU) ... in addition, LMU was up 2-1 in two of the other three losses ... all six of the five-set losses came in WCC play, with two each coming against Pacific and BYU ... the five-set struggles leaked early into 2017, as LMU led 2-1 at #14 Oregon on 9/1 only to drop the match in five ... the Lions have since snapped a string of seven straight five-set setbacks by beating #24 North Carolina in five on 9/15, improving to 1-1 in such matches this year.

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME One of Southern California’s premier athletic facilities, Albert Gersten Pavilion is in its 36th year as home of the Loyola Marymount volleyball in 2017 ... since opening night, the Pavilion has become one of toughest places to play in the West Coast Conference ... the volleyball Lions first moved into the facility in 1982, and recorded 14 wins in Gersten’s inaugural season ... since 1982, the Lions have posted an overall record of 305-162 (.653) in the friendly confines of the Pavilion ... LMU, which went 8-6 last year at home, went 10-4 at home in 2015 ... in conference play, the record is even more impressive with a 155-76 (.671) home record in WCC action ... in 34 years, the 1996 (WCC volleyball championship team and Sweet Sixteen participant) and 2003 (NCAA second round appearance) squads have been the most successful with 14-1 marks, for .933 winning percentages.

IT’S JUST A NUMBER With a victory over No. 24 Pepperdine on November 8, 2012, LMU snapped a streak of 36 straight losses to ranked opponents (previous victory: 10/5/06 at #12 Santa Clara) ... LMU finished that year 1-5 against ranked foes before going 0-4 in such matches in 2013 ... the 2014 season went much better when the Lions were pit against Top-25 squads, as LMU went 2-2 on the year ... LMU was 4-2 against ranked opponents in 2015 after beating #20 UCLA (8/30), #12 BYU (10/24), #13 Colorado State (12/3) and #6 Stanford (12/4), but went 0-5 last year, dropping a four-setter to #12 UCLA on 8/27, falling in five after leading 2-0 over #6 San Diego on 9/27, dropping a four-set match at #5 USD on 10/20, and falling in five to #16 BYU on 10/22 and 11/22 ... so far this year, LMU is 1-3 against ranked foes, suffering a sweep at the hands of then 16th-ranked Michigan on 8/26, falling in five sets at #14 Oregon on 9/1, and suffering a sweep at #13 UCLA on 9/13 ... the Lions ended a nine-match losing streak against Top-25 foes on 9/15, defeating #24 North Carolina in five sets.

WCC PLAYER OF THE WEEK AND ALL-TOURNAMENT For her efforts in guiding LMU to a pair of sweeps over Long Beach State and San Diego State, sophomore outside hitter Savannah Slattery was named West Coast Conference Player of the Week on 9/11 and JLABS Challenge All-Tournament ... the selection was the first of the year for LMU, and was the first of Slattery's career ... Slattery collected 12 kills in each of the two matches, finishing the week with 24 kills (4.00 per set) on 53 swings while hitting .302 ... she also registered a service ace, 16 digs (2.67 per set) and four blocks over the two matches ... the native of Malibu, Calif. narrowly missed a double-double in LMU’s sweep of Long Beach on Thursday, teaming her match-high 12 kills with nine digs while also managing a block solo and one block assist.

PICKED BEFORE THE SERVE The West Coast Conference released its preseason All-WCC selections, and LMU’s Savannah Slattery was honored ... Slattery finished second on the team in kills as a freshman in 2016, totaling 330 to average 3.27 per set ... she also managed 16 aces, 114 digs and 32 blocks, including four solos and 28 block assists ... the native of Malibu, Calif. contributed double-digit kills in 18 of her 29 matches played, including a season-best 24 at BYU on 10/22 in which she also collected 14 digs for one of two double-doubles on the season ... no fewer than eight programs placed at least one student-athlete on the preseason All-West Coast Conference Team ... BYU and San Diego led the way with a pair of preseason selections.

SURVEY SAYS In a preseason poll of the Conference’s 10 head coaches, LMU was selected to finish eighth in the West Coast Conference in 2017 ... after marching to a fifth consecutive NCAA Sweet-16 berth, BYU was the unanimous pick as the favorite to win the West Coast Conference Volleyball Championship ... the Cougars have won or shared the four of the last five WCC titles including three straight.

WINS FOR THE AGES LMU has managed a few streak-stopping victories over the last three years, most notably defeating Stanford, BYU and UCLA ... the Lions’ latest accomplishment was a road sweep at then#6 Stanford on 12/4/15 to advance to the 2015 NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 ... the victory over the Cardinal was the first in program history, as the Lions had previously gone 0-3 and never won a set ... Stanford was also the highest-ranked opponent to be fall to the Lions (previous: 3-2 at #9 Hawaii on 9/23/05) ... LMU posted a five-set victory over then-No. 12 BYU on 10/24/15, marking the first win over the Cougars in program history (1-11) ... prior to LMU’s sweep of UCLA on 8/30/14, the Bruins had won seven straight matches over the Lions ... the all-time series now stands at 11-3 in favor of UCLA, as the Lions swept the Bruins for the second straight year on 8/30/15 in match two of the season ... 2015's victory came on the road, and was the first on the road for LMU at UCLA since December 4, 1986 (3-2) while playing in the NCAA Tournament.

For the 11th consecutive year, LMU volleyball will help raise awareness and funds for the fight against breast cancer through the Side-Out Foundation DiG PiNK campaign ...

Johnson finished the three matches with 34 kills (2.62 per set) on 56 attacks with just five errors to record a solid .518 hitting percentage ... she also added three block solos and 13 block assists to contribute 43.5 total points ... Slattery finished the week with 43 kills (3.31 per set), four aces, 31 digs and eight block assists ... the team leader in points, she contributed 51 over the course of the weekend while collecting a pair of double-doubles.

HEAD COACH AARON MANSFIELD - FIRST SEASON Following five seasons at West Coast Conference rival Santa Clara, Aaron Mansfield is set to begin his tenure as a head coach after being hired to fill LMU volleyball's vacant head coaching position following the 2016 season. Mansfield served the previous three years as Associate Head Coach with the Santa Clara indoor team while serving as Head Coach with the sand program.

"We are excited to have Aaron Mansfield lead our women's volleyball program and further the growth and development we have experienced over the years," LMU Athletics Director Dr. William Husak said. "Aaron is noted for his ability to build strong relationships with the athletes, as an outstanding teacher and recruiter. His experience in a Jesuit institution, both as a coach at Santa Clara University and at Loyola High, will make for a smooth transition to LMU." No stranger to the LMU area, Mansfield spent 2009 to 2011 coaching club at Manhattan Beach Surf where he led his teams to two silver medals in the 17U Open Division of Jr. Nationals while competing himself on the AVP Tour. The native of Sunnyvale, Calif. also coached at Loyola High School where they earned a CIF and state championship in 2010.

"First, let me thank Dr. Husak and Dan Smith for believing in me and hiring me as the new head coach of the women's volleyball program," Mansfield said of his hiring. "Their vision and passion for college athletics was apparent throughout the interview process and I am excited to join their team.

I am eager to get to work and look forward to helping the Lions continue to compete at the highest level both on the court and in the classroom. The West Coast Conference is already known as one of the top volleyball conferences in the country, and we will continue to build on the success the program has had here. As I move on from Santa Clara University, I leave forever grateful for the opportunities and the relationships I built in Northern California. I'm excited to get to work."

Under his watch at Santa Clara, the Broncos made three NCAA Tournament appearances, earned 21 All-WCC selections, and garnered 28 All-WCC Academic picks. His final season with Santa Clara saw the Broncos get out to their best start in program history at 9-0 in 2016. The Broncos upset No. 7 USC on the road during opening weekend, and eventually garnered a #17 ranking in the AVCA Division I Coaches Poll -- it's highest mark since 2006.

Mansfield, who helped guide Santa Clara to the NCCA Tournament in his first season as a coach in 2012, eventually saw his team reach the Tournament in three of his first four years with the program. The third such run came in 2015 after registering a 22-9 mark, including a 13-5 WCC record, to finish with the fourth-best winning percentage for a single season in program history. The Broncos also reached the Tournament in 2014 after posting an overall record of 22-10, including a 12-6 conference mark to capture third place in the WCC. In that season, Santa Clara began the year at 9-1 and went on to notch four victories against Top-25 opponents and six victories over Top-50 opponents.

Prior to joining the staff at Santa Clara, Mansfield coached five seasons at his Alma Mater, UC Santa Barbara, with the men's volleyball program. In addition to training with the US National team from 2008 to 2010, and playing on the AVP Tour beginning in 2005, Mansfield also worked as the Club Santa Barbara Boys 18U head coach.

Mansfield played volleyball at UC Santa Barbara where he was a four-year starter, three-year team captain, and in 2005, he earned All-American honors as a libero. He was selected to the All-MPSF Team all four years and is the all-time digs leader at UCSB with 1,000. Mansfield graduated from UCSB with a degree in cultural anthropology.

Mansfield is originally from Northern California where he attended and played volleyball at Homestead High School. Playing under Roger Edwards and Jason Mansfield, he helped lead the Mustangs to league championships in each of his four years on the team. He was named all-league four straight years and named the De Anza League MVP three times.

Mansfield is married to the former Lindsey Spainhour. The couple was married on May 16, 2014.
