PALM DESERT, Calif. --- El Camino College split a pair of South Coast Conference matches on Friday with a 5-0 win over College of the Desert and a 4-1 loss to Long Beach City at Civic Center Park in Palm Desert, Calif.

The Warriors dropped only one game in the match against the host Roadrunners; the second set on court two.

In the match against Long Beach, the Warriors' team of Scheala Nielsen and Maddie Gloria pulled out the team's only win of the match on court five, scoring a 21-17, 18-21, 15-11 victory.
