Today Stanford WVB #5 destroyed North Carolina #27 (first two sets) and prevailed (third set). (25-13, 25-12, 26-24). Stanford's sixth three set sweep in a row.
Next Sunday, the NCAA chooses the teams for its WVB tournament on ES̃PN at 6:00. The four highest teams can host eight total games among four teams at home. Stanford #5 plays Georgia Tech #17 on Wednesday on the road and Louisville #2 on Saturday, November 30 at 1:00 at Maples. The outcomes may determine how many games during the tournament are at Maples, four or eight.
We will not talk about Stanford's early season losses to Nebraska and Pit and Louisville. Stanford's offensive distribution, defensive blocking, and serving have improved markedly over the season. If you want to see how powerful Stanford currently can look see Stanford v. Georgia Tech

Although Stanford lost superstars from last year, this season's team is, to my eyes, more balanced and more interesting. Sami Francis, Elia Rubin and Kami Miner and Elena Oglivie better than ever. Ipar Kurt and Jordyn Harvey and freshman Lizzy Andrew have emerged. All seven are stars.
