Stepping up: Pepperdine rose from fifth to fourth this week in the men’s volleyball coaches’ poll.

UCLA, the Waves’ opponent at 7:30 tonight at Pauley Pavilion, gained two spots to No. 1 after sweeping previously top-ranked Brigham Young.

Disabled list: David Rhoades, Pepperdine’s first-base coach, is sidelined after breaking his collarbone in a collision with Long Beach State first baseman Keith Cowley, who was chasing a foul pop fly in a game two weeks ago.
