Warriors vs. Cal State San Marcos, Ed & Bertha Fitzpatrick Arena, 1 p.m. | [Live Video] [Live Stats]

Series Notes: The Warriors and Cal State San Marcos are meeting for the second time ever. Earlier this month, on Oct. 16, the Warriors dropped a five-set match to the Cougars.

Finally Home For a While: Stanislaus State is finally playing some home matches as the Warriors will be home for four straight -- the longest such streach this season. So far this year, Stan State is 4-2 when playing at Fitzpatrick Arena, including three straight victories. During the last homestand, the Warriors earned epic wins over Chico State and Cal Poly Pomona.

Working on a Winning Season: The Warriors have a shot at posting the program's first winning season since 2002 when that team went 19-13. In 2000, the Warriors were 18-13. The 2015 squad would have to win one more match to secure at least a .500 season and two more contests to have a chance for a winning year.

The Cougars are 1-8 in their last nine since posting their only other CCAA win over Cal State East Bay on Sept. 26.
