Volleyball is practically in Marilu Pally’s DNA.
Now a sophomore with Cal’s beach volleyball program – the No. 7-ranked NCAA Division I team in the country – the Santa Cruz High grad is the daughter of two elite volleyball players from France: Her father Laurent played professionally, while her mother Veronique Baudon suited up for the French junior national team.
Cal’s hopes for a perfect weekend were quickly stymied with an unfortunate injury and a little lack of chemistry, but the Bears survived the weekend and limited their losses to two.
