USC vs. UCLA underway now; winner plays Stanford at Noon.
No stream on B1G+, AFAICT. Presumably on Big Ten Network. Which even our local sports bar doesn't carry.
USC knocks out UCLA, 3-1.
USC will be playing its third dual of the day vs. Stanford for the championship.

I get B1G network cable and have it set to record. Does the winner of the UCLA/USC match have to beat Stanford once or twice? If it's a true double elimination the winner would have to beat Stanford twice.

Just once.
I haven't seen true double elimination in beach volleyball since the 1990s.
Beating UCLA twice would be sweet, but I do think the odds are better vs. USC.
ETA: The USC/UCLA dual started at 10:25, not 10. So the Championship may be delayed until 12:30.
Stanford socials say 12:05 start.

Stanford wins at #2; USC wins at #4
Stanford won the first set at the #1s
USC won the first set at the #3s and #5s
Likely to be a close match
BC
Second set:
#1s Sorra/Wilson up 21-18, 18-11; cruising to victory
#3s Bellardi/Bell 18-21, 17-12: hopefully going to a third set
#5s Gusarova/Sharp 15-21, 15-17; still hope but not looking great
Could come down to a third set at the #3s.
BC
And Bollard/Bell take the second set at the #3s so it will likely be a deciding third set.
BC
Sorra/Wilson win their match 21-18, 21-15 and Stanford is up 2-1 (though barring a miracle USC 5's will probably even it.
BC
Indeed Gusarova/Sharp fall 15-21, 17-21.
It all comes down to the third set at the 3s.

NCAA Championship selection show in Sunday.
https://www.ncaa.com/news/beach-volleyba...t-schedule
I'll guess TCU #1 and Stanford #2 seed.
Stanford is 0-2 against TCU this year, both losses 2-3. Stanford has improved since then.
