A month into her new role as a hitter with the Oregon volleyball program, Brooke Nuneviller is hitting her stride, perfect timing as the Ducks enter the heart of Pac-12 play.
The UO volleyball team hosts third-ranked Stanford, the defending NCAA champions, in Matthew Knight Arena on Friday (7 p.m., ESPN2). The weekend homestand concludes against No. 19 California on Sunday at 1 p.m.
The No. 25 Ducks bring a 5-6 record into the weekend, forged mostly during a two-week East Coast trip on which Oregon faced a tough gantlet of nationally ranked foes.
