[cmgoods]

LEXINGTON, Ky. — For the second straight week, the University of Colorado volleyball team is ranked in the AVCA Division I Coaches Poll. The Buffs are 22[SUP]nd[/SUP] overall this week, falling one spot from last week’s ranking of 21[SUP]st[/SUP], after losing a pair of matches against top-25 opponents last weekend.

CU is one of eight Pac-12 Conference teams ranked in the poll this week. Stanford tops the rankings, followed by Washington (second), Oregon (10[SUP]th[/SUP]), Arizona (14[SUP]th[/SUP]), UCLA (18[SUP]th[/SUP]), Arizona State (19[SUP]th[/SUP]) and USC (21[SUP]st[/SUP]). Two others, Utah and Oregon State, are receiving votes.

“Dropping one spot in the national poll after a tough weekend shows the relative strength of the Pac-12, all twelve teams are formidable opponents, and some of the best volleyball in the nation is being played in our league,” head coach Liz Kritza said.

A shocker to me that we only dropped one spot. Especially being swept at home both matches.

Another sign of the relative strength of the Pac-12, Utah is 4-10, good for 10th place in Conference and is #30 (rcvg 34 votes).
