Posted: Tue Oct 24, 2023 9:59 am
The Oklahoma Sooner Women's Volleyball Team will host Tulsa on the 14th, tonight at 7 PM in their annual Cancer Awareness Night. The Sooners are 7-11 overall and 1-8. Tulsa is 1-11 overall and 4-7 in conference.
Tulsa has a high point scorer in Kayley Cassaday (#10). She has scored 443.0 points. She has 408 Kills, 134 service aces, 21 Block Points an 27 Digs for the season. She is a 5'11" OH. OU will have to have a block up in front of Cassaday every point and attack. As a team, Tulsa has 105 service acesa nd 1030 Kills in 22 matches.
OU averages more Aces per set, more Kills per set but less block points per set. OU does average more errors at the net and move service errors per sta however though.

The Sooners are coming off of a good win in 5 sets of K-State on last Thursday before losing to K-State 0-3 on Friday in a disappointing loss. After Tulsa, OU plays Iowa State this weekend in a DH on Saturday and Sunday.
I wonder if Chamberlain gets some rest tonight due to the DH played on Thurs-Fri against K-State and the DH to be played on Sat-Sun. Shelton has a hand injury of some sort I think also. I wonder if she gets some rest tonight.
Coach Mansfield has gone with a smaller more defensive back row for several matches as of late. I wonder if that continues or not tonight. I think the Sooner should be favored tonight, but as always, OU has to manage those errors which so often determines the outcome of the match.
Good luck to the Sooners tonight against Tulsa.
