PORTLAND, Ore. --- The Portland Pilots beach volleyball team was at Delta Park on Saturday for the first day of the Oregon Tournament. Boise State came back to win in the first match of the day and Stanford used their height to move past Portland in the afternoon.

In the afternoon match, Portland (0-6) dropped a match to Pac-12 powerhouse Stanford (4-3).

Stanford used their experience and height to win four of the five duals. Katie Barker and Djurdjina Milovic stole a match from the Cardinal in the fourth pair with set scores of 22-20, 10-21, and 15-12.

In the top pair, Hannah Troutman and Morgan Robinson forced Hayley Hodson and Payton Chang into a third game by winning the second game 21-7, but the Cardinal finished strong with a 15-7 win in the third game.
