In their final Pac-12 tournament of the 2024 regular season, and final regular season Pac-12 tournament ever, the Arizona State beach volleyball team is heading up north to Seattle, Washington, for the Pac-12 North Tournament.

The Sand Devils will face off against No. 3 USC and No. 13 Washington on Friday, then Utah and Oregon on Saturday.

The two ranked match-ups on Friday will be the 14th and 15th of the season so far for the Devils. Five of those match-ups so far have been against Pac-12 opponents, highlighting the depth and talent in the Pac.

Currently, seven schools in the top 25 come from the Pac-12, including all of the top three. In its last season, the Pac-12 is showing why beach volleyball runs through the west coast.

The Devils’ match-up against USC will be the fourth time the Devils have played a top-five team this season, as the group has already taken on No. 1 UCLA, No. 2 Stanford, and No. 5 TCU.

ASU is also seeking their first win against the Trojans since the beginning of the program as an NCAA affiliated sport. Since 2014, the Sun Devils are 0-13 all time against the Women of Troy.

Additionally, the duel against Washington will be the second of the season for the Devils, as they beat the Huskies 3-2 at the Fight in the Fort tournament in Texas two weekends ago on March 22.

The Devils will look to enter the weekend strong with the match-up against USC, building on the momentum they picked up after 2 strong wins last weekend, against No. 17 Stetson and No. 19 GCU.

Their first match-up will be against USC Friday morning at 9 a.m., followed by Washington at 1 p.m. Saturday, the Devils play Utah at 11 a.m. and Oregon at 1 p.m.
