Didn't realize WSU has a 5'8" OH.
Would really like Hambly to use Xu as a serving sub and then set. When Miner is in the front row and Baird is in the back row, Stanford usually ends up with limited offensive options due to inconsistent passing.
Yes! Win this, ladies, partly to avenge Stanford MFB's loss to WSU last weekend.....
In WSU's 1-3 home loss to USC a few weeks ago, both of WSU's OHs TIMMER and TUSA hit .160 as USC outhit (54 kills @ .266 vs. 52 kills @ .190), outblocked (11-9) and outdug (58-55) them.
In WSU's 2-3 home loss to UCLA during that same weekend, WSU outblocked UCLA (10-5), but UCLA outhit (71 kills @ .253 vs. 63 kills @ .215) and outdug them (71-63) and, again, WSU's OHs hit poorly, as primary hitter TIMMER was 18-9-56 for .161 while the 5'8 TUSA was 6-7-30 for -.033.
I guess Stanford coach HAMBLY can probably take something useful from those results.
