Volleyball hits the court running

By DJ Ramirez | Sports Editor

Baylor volleyball is not taking the easy road into the fall.

Before heading north for back-to-back tournaments in Nebraska and Wisconsin from Friday to Sept. 6, the Bears will be taking a trip a little closer to home for an exhibition match against Texas A&M Saturday. According to redshirt senior middle blocker Shelly Fanning Stafford, it will be just like any other away game.

“We’re going a night early, going to get a good night sleep, Coach [Ryan McGuyre] is going to give us a bedtime story,” Stafford said.

Coming off its highest finish in Big 12 play and third NCAA Tournament bid, Baylor is ranked No.
