I am happy Baird ended on a much better game. She deserved that.
For me the core today was too many service errors and no blocking. The middles were also mostly without impact the last 2 matches though we at least had some blocking vs. ASU. I am not seeing how that is better or even the same next year.
in the end this has been a very good team, but not Final 4 level. They have had their shots the last 2 years at home. It will be a big rebuild next year.
The big positive is Rubin has emerged as a star.
We lost this match because a Texas team that had passed poorly all year long decided to pass well. When a top team is in system they are going to side out at a brobdingnagian rate. That includes us.
This is one of the best serve / pass teams Stanford has ever had. And last night we lost the serve / pass battle.....
