At least it was over quickly. In roughly 45 minutes, Arizona volleyball was dispatched in a sweep (25-8, 25-14, 25-23) by No. 3 Stanford at Maples Pavilion. The loss dropped the Wildcats to 5-10 overall and 0-4 in Pac-12 play. Unlike its other two matches against top 10 opponents, this one was not competitive.
The Cardinal came out and imposed their will. Arizona won the first point and didn’t win another until it trailed 7-1. It was never competitive as Stanford hit .485 in the opening set to just .094 by the Wildcats. The Cardinal committed just one hitting error in set one.
