So far it looks to me like Nebraska deserves their number one ranking.

This is the bar that you have to meet to be a Natty contender. This is great experience for our team. We will get better no doubt. Hoping we can still steal a set.

Midway through the third set and Harvey has a Blutarsky hitting percentage.

Setting/hitting often out of sync. Obviously, it will get better, but what a luxury a 4th year setter and libero were.

I choose to optimistically view this as a great educational opportunity. The last time we had three strong players of this caliber at 3 unique positions was the fall of 2016...so I'll think of the growth these three can have together and the impact -- even if not nearly as quickly as Plummer et.al.!

Rubin not playing against Long Beach State.
Stanford off to a dreadful start against unranked LBSU. No hitting and no blocking so far. Still early.

Rubin in now.

Rubin starting in set 2 after Stanford hit negative in set 1.
Stanford looking better in set 2. Unranked LBSU still looks like the better team.
Yes, LBSU falling apart toward end of set 2.
Sayer with a monster slide hit. Maybe mojo returning?
Yes, Stanford finishes strong in set 2. Some nice serving by Rubin.

Stanford much better in set 3.
Rubin with six aces thus far. Stanford changes over to 5-1 and going much better.

I’m so glad they finally switched to 5-1. Nice to see them running slides again. It’s seems like everyone especially the middles are more comfortable in 5-1. There’s more flow now.

I haven't checked the stats. Both teams combined for over 30 service errors.

LBSU had 17 SE and 3 aces; Stanford had 15 SE and 8 aces.
Stanford hit 0.000 without Rubin, 0.337 with her. She hit 0.200 herself, but the passing was much better.

Pretty sure Harris hasn't won that since late last season. ;)
