#11 Washington vs. #7 Purdue @ Houston (Friday)
The Tiger Classic, hosted by LSU, was moved to Rice
University to avoid Hurricane Isaac. Seventh ranked Purdue is a powerhouse,
coming off a 29-5 season that ended in the Sweet 16 (to Florida State.) This
season’s big hitters include sophomore Val
Nichol, senior Ariel Turner and
junior Catherine Rebarchak. Like Jim McLaughlin at Washington, Purdue
coach Dave Shondell has doled out
plenty of preseason playing time up and down his roster. This should be
Washington’s toughest opponent until UCLA
and USC come to Seattle September
26-27.
#8 Stanford @ #4 Penn State (Friday)
Stanford lost convincingly
at Hawai’i on Sunday, and now must
travel 7 time zones face the Beasts of the East. For a detailed preview, visit DigNittanyVolleyball.
#2 Texas @ #4 Penn State (Saturday)
Texas plays in a
relatively easy conference, so these nonconference matchups are a good way to
measure whether the Longhorns deserve their lofty ranking.

Pac-12 | Volleyball tournament moves to Houston, sidestepping hurricane
LSU Tiger Classic—featuring
Washington, Purdue, Rice and host LSU—is moved to Houston
With Hurricane Isaac bearing down on Louisiana, host LSU has
decided to move its Tiger Classic volleyball tournament to Rice University in
Houston. #12 Washington and #7 Purdue will join LSU and Rice in the
tournament.
The tournament’s schedule remains the same:
Pac 12 | Hurricane Isaac may change Washington volleyball plans
Baton Rouge
Tournament—featuring Washington, Purdue, Rice and host LSU—may have to be moved
to Houston
The latest hurricane projections from NOAA show Hurricane
Isaac heading straight for Louisiana.
There are now discussions about moving this weekend’s
volleyball matches from Baton Rouge, home of host LSU, to Houston, home of
participant Rice.
The tournament is scheduled for this Friday and Saturday, but teams were scheduled to arrive in Baton Rouge earlier in the week.
