No. 5 Bruin women volleyballers to find out how good they are in Nebraska

Ucllablogpixspicer_nellie300b So it’s only a season-opening tournament in Nebraska, but the no. 5-ranked UCLA women’s volleyball team will learn quite a bit about themselves this weekend in Omaha during the American Volleyball Coaches Association "College Volleyball Showcase" today and Saturday.

UCLA, led by All-American junior setter Nellie Spicer (pictured) will face no. 21 Utah in a rematch of an NCAA second-round face-off from last season that was won by the Bruins in straight sets. If UCLA can get by the Utes, it will face the winner of no. 1-ranked Nebraska and unranked Tennessee. Nebraska is the defending national champion and defeated UCLA in four games in the national semifinals last season.

The UCLA-Utah match will be shown live on CSTV at 4 p.m. Pacific time today and the tournament’s championship match will also be shown live on Saturday, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Pacific time. There’s no radio coverage, but there is a real-time stats link accessible from uclabruins.com.
