No. 20 Baylor volleyball has survived one of the toughest schedules in the nation, including six games against top-11 opponents, to put together a winning record and be ranked No. 20 in the latest AVCA poll.

The Bears are also one of the youngest teams in the country.

“It’s exciting and reassuring,” head coach Ryan McGuyre said of the team’s youth movement. “Like, hey, we want to win games now. But it really allows us to say, ‘Let’s just focus on being good volleyball players and get after it,’ with the reassurance that our future is extremely bright — that Averi [Carlson]’s only going to get better, [Kyndal] Stowers is only going to get better, Allie Sczech is only going to get better.
