No. 4 seed BYU Women’s Volleyball picked a bad time to have an off night.
The Cougar offense had their worst match of the season in Thursday night’s NCAA Tournament Semifinal match against No. 1 seed Stanford, and the Cardinal swept the Cougars 25-15, 25-15, 25-18.
BYU struggled to get good hits on Stanford’s serves, taking the Cougars out of system and out of rhythm. Those hitting woes, combined with stellar Cardinal defense, spelled doom for BYU’s national championship aspirations.
The Cougars finished with a negative hitting percentage in all three sets, by far their worst hitting of the season.
