OUTSIDE LOOKING IN: Wyoming's volleyball team finished with a ratings percentage index of 61 last season, about 12 spots away from being in serious contention for an NCAA Tournament bid. With a 23-8 record, UW coach Chad Callihan figures his team was about two wins away.
LOFTY GOAL: It's been 21 years since the Cowgirls played in the NCAA Tournament, but UW has made that its primary goal for the 2015 season. With two All-Mountain West Conference players returning in Bridget Shanahan and Laura Beach, the Cowgirls believe they have the talent — and nonconference schedule — to do so.
