div. 2 member Lewis upsets Pepperdine.

All-American Gustavo Meyer led a late rally in the final game that gave Lewis University a five-game upset of Pepperdine in the semifinals of the NCAA men's volleyball championships Thursday night.
The 30-27, 29-31, 30-17, 25-30, 15-13 victory put the third-seeded Flyers (28-5) into Saturday's final against either top-seeded Brigham Young or fourth-seeded Penn State.
Lewis, of Romeoville, Ill., became the first Division II entrant to play for an NCAA men's volleyball championship.
Second-seeded Pepperdine (24-6), ranked No. 1 for most of the season, held a 13-11 lead in the final game. But Jose Martins converted a tip at the net, then Meyer and Kevin Miller combined on a block that tied the score.
Meyer and Miller blocked the Waves' Sean Rooney to give Lewis a 14-13 lead. Meyer then ensured the victory with a kill off Rooney's attempted block.
Meyer finished with 24 kills, five block assists and 14 digs. Fabiano Barreto led the Flyers with a game-high 31 kills, Ryan Stuntz set a school record with 19 digs and Martins passed for 69 assists.
Lewis also set school single-match records for kills (85), attempts (179), assists (82) and digs (71).
Pepperdine's Fred Winters made 28 kills and Rooney added 21 kills and 12 digs. Setter John Mayer had 60 assists and 12 digs.
