Volleyball Wraps Up 1998 Regular Season
No. 5 Stanford to host San Francisco Nov. 24.
November 24, 1998
PAC-10 CHAMPIONS: Stanford won its fifth straight Pac-10 title outright with a victory over UCLA on Nov. 20. Last week, the Cardinal clinched at least a share of the crown with a sweep of Oregon State on Nov. 15. In the past five Pac-10 championship seasons, Stanford is 88-3 (.967) in conference play, losing only to USC on Nov. 22, Washington State in the 1996 season and UCLA in 1994. The Cardinal saw its 44 consecutive Pac-10 win streak come to an end with a loss to USC this past weekend. In the 13 years Stanford has been a part of the Pac-10 conference in volleyball, the Cardinal has never finished lower than second, earning seven conference titles since 1986.
KERRI WALSH, PAC-10 PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Two-time First Team AVCA All-American and 1996 National Freshman of the Year Kerri Walsh became the sixth Stanford player to be named Pac-10's Player of the Year when she earned this year's honor. Walsh has been a major force in leading the Cardinal to a 52-2 conference record and three Pac-10 crowns in her three seasons on The Farm. The Saratoga, Calif., native posted her best night of the season at No. 10 Pacific on Oct. 20.
She recorded her fifth career triple-double that night, registering a season-high 24 kills, as well as posting 10 assists and 17 digs. She also reached the 1,000-kill plateau in the second game of that match. Walsh earned her second Pac-10 Player-of-the-Week honor this season (and fifth of her career) by adding double-doubles vs. Arizona State and Arizona on Oct. 23 and 25 and finished that week with 59 kills (4.54 kpg), 18 assists, 45 digs and 11 blocks.
Walsh is currently hitting .388, the second best single-season hitting percentage in school history and second in the Pac-10. She trails Wendy Rush, who hit .400 in 1987. Walsh ranks second in the conference in digs per game (3.20) and is eighth in kills average (3.86). In the first two weeks of the season, she was named to the All-Tournament Team at the San Diego State Tournament and led her team to the Colorado PowerBar Invitational title, posting 29 kills, 22 digs and 18 blocks in two matches en route to Tournament MVP and her first Pac-10 Player-of-the-Week honors.
Walsh also has registered 12 double-doubles on the season. In addition to 1996 All-America and National Freshman of the Year Honors, Walsh was named the Final Four Most Valuable Player and First Team All-Pac-10. In 1997, she earned First Team All-America, All-District 8 and First Team All-Pac-10 honors. Walsh concluded the year by recording a triple-double of 30 digs (single match school record), 14 kills and 11 assists in the championship match victory over Penn State.

ALL-PAC-10 SELECTIONS: Led by Kerri Walsh's Pac-10 Player-of-the-Year honors, sophomore middle blocker Jennifer Detmer joined her teammate on the All-Pac-10 Team, while sophomore setter Robyn Lewis earned honorable mention honors. Freshmen Michelle Chambers and Sara Sandrik were named to the conference's All-Freshman Team.
1998 NCAA TOURNAMENT: Selections for this year's Tournament will be announced Sun., Nov. 29 at 5:30 p.m. (Pacific Time). The team will open practice to the public that afternoon (1:30-3:30 p.m.) and then will host a Pizza & Pairings Party at the Sports Cafe in Arrillaga Family Sports Center, beginning at 4:30 p.m. The cost is $5 per person and RSVPs need to be made by Nov. 24 to Denise Corlett in the Stanford women's volleyball office. Stanford is a possible host for the Regionals and Subregionals. In August, the NCAA increased the number of team participating in this year's tournament to 64.
THE SERIES: In 15 meetings, Stanford has yet to fall to the University of San Francisco. The last meeting was a Cardinal sweep in the 1995 season. This season, USF is 1-28, and winless in 14 games in the West Coast Conference. The team is currently in a 15-match losing streak. The Dons are led by junior outside hitter Casie Lomax, who averages 2.91 kills per game.
NATIONAL RANKINGS: The Cardinal dropped one spot to No. 5 in both the USA Today/AVCA Coaches andVolleyball Magazine Polls after falling to USC this past weekend. The Cardinal began the season ranked No. 4 and No. 5 in the polls, respectively. In fact, Stanford has been ranked in the top ten for 210 weeks, topping the chart. No. 3 Nebraska is next at 198. The Cardinal has been ranked as low as No. 9 this season, the lowest since a No. 8 ranking in the 1989 campaign.WINNING TRADITION: With a victory over No. 16 UCLA on Nov. 20, Stanford reached the 25-win plateau for the fifth straight season and the 14th time in 23 years. The Cardinal has reached the 20-win mark for nine straight seasons. In the history of Cardinal volleyball, Stanford has never had a losing season, and it guaranteed that will remain true for another year after defeating No. 10 Pacific on Oct. 20, its 15th win in a 28-match season. In fact, Stanford is averaging almost 30 wins per season in the '90s.
ON THE AIRWAVES: Cable Co-op will broadcast the USF match on a tape-delayed basis, to be replayed on Sun, Nov. 29 at 8:30 p.m. Stanford's student radio station, KZSU 90.1 FM, will broadcast the match live. Colin Drake handles the play-by-play duties. The match will also be on a real audio webcast on Stanford's athletic website: www.gostanford.com.
PERFORMING AT THE PAVILION: The Cardinal has won 26 straight matches at Maples Pavilion, as well as 77 of its last 78 matches. Stanford is also currently riding a 45-match win streak at home in Pac-10 play that stretches to the beginning of the 1994 season. Stanford has won 77 of its last 79 home conference matches, with both losses coming at the hands of UCLA.
REACHING FOR THE ROOF: Stanford's averaging 3.75 blocks per game to lead the Pac-10 and rank second nationally. Two Cardinal athletes rank in the Pac-10's top 10 in bpg: Jennifer Detmer (1.65, 1st) and Sara Sandrik (1.36, 6th). With the exception of then-No. 5 Nebraska and then-No. 11 USC (11/22), Stanford has out-blocked its opponents in matches this season. The Cardinal averages 1.9 blocks per game more than its opposition. Stanford recorded a season-high 29 blocks vs. then-No. 12 Colorado on Sept. 12, the Pac-10's best single-match performance this season.BALANCED ATTACK: Stanford's offense is spread through five players who have registered at least 200 kills. Jennifer Detmer leads that group with 318 kills. She is also one of four Cardinal players who is hitting over the .300 mark. In fact, Stanford's offense is one of the most productive in the Pac-10, as the Cardinal is ranked first or second in the conference in hitting percentage, assists per game and kills per game.

MARKING A MILESTONE: Stanford head coach Don Shaw earned his 400th career victory Oct. 30 at Washington. In his almost 15 seasons on The Farm, Shaw has led the Cardinal to a 406-66 (.860) career mark, as well as 212-22 (.906) in the Pac-10. On Oct. 2, he earned his 200th Pac-10 victory, becoming the only coach in the conference's history to reach this mark. He has led Stanford to four NCAA titles and amassed the best winning percentage in NCAA Division I history. The UCSB graduate, who served as co-head coach with Fred Sturm in 1984-85 before taking sole control in 1986, has guided the Cardinal to a 87-3 (.967) conference record in the last five seasons, including 149-11 (.931) overall. Shaw, the 1997 Volleyball Magazine National Coach of the Year, Pac-10 Co-Coach of the Year and District VIII Coach of the Year, has also led Stanford to six Pac-10 titles and eight Final Four appearances.
JUMPING JENNIFER: After seeing limited playing time behind seniors Barbara Ifejika and Paula McNamee as a freshman last year, sophomore Jennifer Detmer has solidified her status as one of the conference's dominating middle blockers, reflected in her All-Pac-10 Team selection. This season, Detmer has recorded 154 blocks (29 solo, 125 assist) to lead the Cardinal. Her 1.59 blocks per game is second in the conference, while she ranks fourth in hitting percentage (.355). Detmer earned her first Pac-10 Player-of-the-Week honor after recording a career-high 23 kills vs. USC in the Pac-10 opener Sept. 18. She added 11 kills vs. UCLA two days later and recorded 30 blocks for that weekend. Detmer, who boasts a 3.43 GPA, was named a Pac-10 Second Team All-Academic selection. She was also selected to the All-Tournament Team at the San Diego State Tournament at the beginning of the season after she posted 44 kills and 14 blocks in three matches. Against the Oregon schools Oct. 16 and 18, Detmer registered 21 kills and only two errors, for a .514 hitting percentage. She posted a career-high 11 blocks vs. New Mexico at the Colorado PowerBar Invitational and has posted two double-doubles on the season: vs. New Mexico on Sept. 11 (10 kills, 11 blocks) and at Arizona on Sept. 25 (15 kills, 10 blocks). Last year, she was selected to the 1997 Pac-10 All-Freshman Team, recording 56 blocks in 59 games, as well as 72 kills and a .366 hitting percentage.ROCKIN' ROBYN: Sophomore Robyn Lewis posted her 1,000th career assist vs. Oregon State on Nov. 15 and now has 1,053 in two years. Along the way, she has proven herself to be a valuable assest to the Cardinal in all aspects of the game and was just named an Honorable Mention All-Pac-10 selection. Offensively, her assists average place her fifth-best in the Pac-10 (12.44 apg), while she's added 67 kills. Defensively, Lewis has tallied 198 digs, second on the team, and has 82 blocks. She recorded a spectacular night in a victory at No. 10 Pacific on Oct. 20, posting a career-high 69 assists. She also added 13 digs, eight kills and eight blocks for a strong all-around effort. Lewis was named to the Honorable Menion Pac-10 All-Academic Team, with her 3.18 GPA. She began the season earning All-Tournament Team honors at the Colorado PowerBar Invitational, registering 92 assists in two matches. Since then, she has posted nine double-doubles and hit the 40-assist mark nine times this season. As one of last year's back-up setters, she recorded 83 assissts, 22 digs and nine blocks in seven matches.
FAB FRESHMAN: Midddle blocker Sara Sandrik moved into the Cardinal starting lineup almost immediately and has since established herself as one of the top young players in the conference. In fact, she was recently named to the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team. She ranks sixth in the Pac-10 in blocks per game, averaging 1.36, and is ninth on the conference's list in hitting percentage (.296). Sandrik posted her career-high of 21 kills twice (at No. 10 Pacific and vs. Sacramento State) and personal-best nine blocks vs. No. 21 San Diego (9/5). She has posted three double-doubles on the season: 12 kills, 13 digs at UC Santa Barbara (9/1); 11 kills, 10 digs vs. USC (9/16) and 11 kills, 14 digs vs. UCLA (9/18). Sandrik has also posted 10 or more kills in a match 16 times this season. The Pelham (Ala.) high school graduate was named the 1997 Gatorade Circle of Champions National High School Girls' Volleyball Player of the Year and was named by USA Today as the most highly recruited player in the country.
FAB FRESHMAN, PART DEUX: A starter since the conference season, outside hitter Michelle Chambers has recorded 238 kills, 179 digs and 59 blocks this season en route to being named to the Pac-10's All-Freshman Team. She also registered career-highs in kills and digs vs. UCLA (9/20), posting 22 kills and 15 digs in the four-game match for her first of three double-doubles on the season. She also tallied 14 kills and 13 digs vs. Arizona (9/25) and 11 kills and 12 digs at Washington (10/30). Chambers was named to the 1997 Volleyball Magazine High School All-America Team.
DIGGING IT UP: Junior Jaimi Gregory returned to action against the Washington schools (Oct. 30, Nov. 1) after missing nine matches due to a knee injury. Before she left, she was averaging 3.02 digs per game, since her return, her totals average 2.41 digs per game. She posted 30 digs in two matches at the Arizona schools, including 18 digs at Arizona State (9/27). Her season high is 24 digs in a victory at No. 12 Colorado (9/12). Gregory adds 84 kills and 13 blocks on the season.
SENIOR SARAH NEAL: Stanford's lone senior on the team, Sarah Neal, was named to the Pac-10's First Team All-Academic squad. The History major carries a 3.71 GPA and will play in her final regular season home game tonight vs. USF. As a backrow specialist and 1998 team captain, Neal has appeared in 96 of a possible 97 games and has recorded 194 digs and nine service aces on the season. She registered a career-high 17 digs at No. 16 UCLA on Nov. 20, securing the team's fifth-straight Pac-10 title.
STRONG SCHEDULE: Stanford finished its regular season with a 7-3 mark agaisnt ranked opposition. September was the Cardinal's most competitive month, as the team played six teams ranked in the top 25: No. 10 UC Santa Barbara (9/1), No. 5 Nebraska (9/4), No. 21 San Diego (9/5), No. 12 Colorado (9/12), No. 5 USC (9/18) and No. 20 Arizona (9/25), and lost only to the first two -- the Gauchos and the Huskers. Stanford also defeated No. 10 Pacific (10/20), No. 17 Arizona (10/25) and No. 16 UCLA (11/20) but fell to No. 11 USC (11/22) to round out the record. Eleven of the Carindal's opponents have been ranked in the top 25 at one point this season.
NCAA TOURNAMENT HISTORY: As two-time defending national champions, Stanford will be the first school to try to capture three straight NCAA titles. Only three other teams have captured back-to-back crowns: UCLA (1990-91), Pacific (1985-86) and Hawaii (1982-83). The Cardinal has claimed four of the last six NCAA titles, more than any other institution. In fact, California-based teams have won 12 of the 17 Championship crowns. Hawaii (3), Nebraska (1) and Texas (1) are the only other states that boast national winners. Broken down by conference, the Pac-10 has captured eight of the 17 titles awarded, including six of the last eight. In addition to Stanford's four titles, UCLA captured titles in 1984, 1990 and 1991, while USC won the first NCAA crown in women's volleyball in 1981.
IN THE BEGINNING: Stanford opened the season on the road for the ninth time in ten years, falling to No. 10 UC Santa Barbara (9/1), marking the first time the Cardinal has lost its first match of the season in 15 years. The last time was the 1983 opener at Hawaii, when Stanford fell in three games. The loss to the Gauchos was also Don Shaw's first season-opening loss since he took the reins in 1985. The team rebounded, recording a first-place finish at the PowerBar Invitational in Boulder, Colo., and a second-place finish at the San Diego State Tournament in the following weeks.
COACHES' PREDICTIONS: Three months ago, four-time defending Pac-10 champion Stanford was picked to finish second in the preseason poll of the Pac-10 volleyball coaches, earning only one first-place vote. With the Cardinal winning this year's conference crown, the coaches have incorrectly picked the Pac-10 champion for the third time in the last 10 polls. USC, which returned five starters and finished tied for second in last year's conference standings, garnered the other nine first place votes and finished second in the final conference standings. The Women of Troy became the first team other than Stanford or UCLA to hold the top spot in the preseason coaches poll.
1997 YEAR IN REVIEW: The Cardinal finished the season with a 33-2 mark, tying the school single-season record for wins, also established in 1980 (33-18). Stanford finished the 1997 campaign with a school-record 28 straight wins, tied for the ninth-longest streak in NCAA Division I history. The 5-0 mark in the NCAA Tournament gives Stanford a 49-14 record in the postseason since the event began in 1981. The 49 NCAA Tournament wins is the most by any Division I school. Stanford also went 18-0 in the Pac-10 for the third time in school history (1991, 1995, 1997) en route to its fourth straight conference title. Stanford is one of only four programs that have earned a berth in all 17 NCAA tournaments. Pacific, Penn State and UC Santa Barbara are the other three.
HAVE A SEAT: Stanford is averaging 1,831 fans through 11 home dates. That mark is good for 11th best in the nation. Seventh-ranked Hawaii leads the country (6,670), followed by No. 3 Nebraska (3,767), Illinois State (2,680), No. 8 Wisconsin (2,658), No. 2 Penn State (2,641), top-ranked Long Beach State (2,428), No. 4 Florida (2,075), No. 12 Texas (2,066), No. 10 Pacific (1,920) and No. 21 Illinois (1,919).
