VB Preview: Scorching Oregon Travels North to Face Two Tough Washington Opponents

by Ryan Oppenheimer Oregon’s volleyball team (#12 in AVCA poll, 10-2 overall, 4-0 conf) has a busy weekend ahead of them, with road matchups against Washington State (10-5, 2-2) on Friday at 7pm PT and Washington (#18, 11-3, 3-1) on Sunday at 4pm PT. The Ducks’ incredible six-game winning streak started on September 17 with a sweep over South Carolina. Now, following consecutive home sweeps of #8 Stanford and both Arizona schools, they show no signs of slowing down. Senior Brooke Nuneviller and freshman Mimi Colyer both boast top 7 kills/set numbers in the conference. The Ducks as a unit lead the Pac-12 in assists per set and fewest errors. The upcoming road trip will be a crucial midseason test, though. Wazzu has served 100 aces in 54 sets — good for 2nd in the conference — and is undefeated in Pullman so far. They are led by senior middle blocker Magda Jehlarova, who was named Pac-12 defensive player of the week. Huskies setter Ella May Powell and outside hitter Claire Hoffman… Read More

By Joe Bachman

The Oregon Ducks will be hosting the Stanford Cardinal on Saturday night for a prime time matchup this weekend in Autzen Stadium. Last week, The Ducks pulled off a huge victory in Pullman versus the Washington State Cougars, while the Stanford Cardinal came off a tough loss to the Washington Huskies. Oregon (3-1, 1-0 Pac-12) comes into this game ranked #13 in the country and Stanford (1-2, 0-2) is going to need a lot of firepower to be able to pull off this upset.
