The Buffs have their 2nd match of the day at 6:00 MT against the host Rice Owls in the final match of the Rice Adidas Invitational.
Looks like Rice should give the Buffs their best test of the weekend, as, like the Buffs, they've defeated both Sam Houston State and Louisiana Lafayette, although Sam Houston did take them to 5 sets in the tournament's 1st match of the day today. (The Buffs have swept both these opponents this weekend.)
A very short preview on Rice from the article before this weekend (http://www.cubuffs.com//ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&ATCLID=210332292)-
"...
Rice, the tournament host, has a 5-2 record (Note- now 7-2) to start the season. A pair of Owls are averaging over 3.00 kills per set: Leah Mikesky (3.45) and Chelsey Harris (3.48). As a team, RU is hitting .254 and are holding its opponents to a .213 hitting percentage. Kimberly Vaio is averaging a team-best 3.69 digs per set and McKay Kyle is posting 0.90 blocks per set for the Owls.
