Final Four: UCLA wins first set

SAN ANTONIO--UCLA out-served Illinois early, keeping the Illini out-of-system, and allowing the Bruins blockers to get touches or stuffs. That led to a 7-1 run in the middle of the set.

But when UCLA's Tabi Love moved to the front row, the Bruins lost the quickness they get when Rachel Kidder is in front, and the Illini moved ahead 20-18.

With Kidder back in front, setter Lauren Van Orden went her way over and over again, and it paid off, as Kidder had two of the Bruins' final three kills.
