STANFORD, Calif. – Sophomore Morgan Hentz and freshman Amelia Smith were named the Pac-12 Conference Beach Pair of the Week, as announced Tuesday.
The Cardinal's No. 2 pairing put together a four-win performance during the Stanford Bay Area Kickoff last weekend, helping Stanford earn wins over Saint Mary's, San Francisco, Sacramento State and Pacific.
Hentz and Smith did not lose a single set in their four matches. Their opposition also never earned more than 17 points in a set across the four-match run.
The Hentz and Smith tandem returns to action on Wednesday when the Cardinal hosts San Jose State at 3:30 p.m. PT at Stanford Beach Volleyball Stadium. Stanford continues its home slate with the Stanford Invitational (March 9-10), playing host to Arizona State, Boise State, California, Tulane and San Jose State. The Cardinal's Saturday matches against Boise State and Arizona State will be broadcast on Pac-12 Networks.
