interesting parallel--dominance in womens hoops and volleyball

And Washington lost the previous match on the road to Washington St. This has been a strange year in volleyball so far. Appears to be more parity than normal.

Definitely. I'm just stunned at how underwhelming Stanford has been despite their insane schedule. They nearly went down 2-1 against both Cal and Penn State, almost lost to Texas, too. The schedule is much easier the rest of the year but I thought they'd cruise through this season like UCONN did during the Stewart era.

Some of the matches were close, but I was still impressed w/ Stanford's non conference results. The BYU loss was eye opening though.

During the first week of play, 8 of 12 teams in the Pac went 1-1. So pretty much anybody can beat anybody else at this early juncture of the season.
