After 4 weeks of exhibition play, including 3 tournaments that had the the California Golden Bears traveling to South Dakota and Oregon, the start of the always very tough gauntlet that is Pac-12 Volleyball play is once again upon us. Just like the last few years, Cal will get to open and close the conference schedule against rival Stanford, who made the Final Four last year after winning their 7th NCAA title in 2016.
Yep, the relatively young Cal Bears squad will instantly test themselves against the arguably best in the Pac as Stanford are ranked 2nd in the country (behind BYU, which is a mild surprise).
