EUGENE, Ore. – Coming off a run to the third round of the NCAA Tournament a year ago, the Oregon volleyball team will pick up where it left off after being ranked No. 13 in the American Volleyball Coaches Association Poll, Wednesday.
The Ducks received 722 total points and are the third-ranked Pac-12 team with Stanford at No. 2 and Washington at No. 10.
The preseason poll also paints the picture of another challenging schedule for the Ducks in 2015, as 10 different opponents earned a preseason ranking. Most of the 10 come as conference opponents, with Oregon being one of nine Pac-12 schools to be ranked, but the Ducks will also face No.
