It's kind of a slow day for volleyball watching, so this looks like the match of the day.
Pacific v. #15 BYU is being broadcast on ESPNU at 8:00 pm PT. Live stats: stats.statbroadcast.com/broadcast/?id=93537
I think this could be a very close matchup. Pacific seems to be getting more hitters involved in recent matches, but the big guns, Elman vs Gray, should be duking it out. It will be interesting to see how Elman does against the famous BYU block. I would pick BYU in 4 or 5 close sets.
(If you are a WCC fan, the LMU at Gonzaga match is shown on theW.tv earlier - at 6pm Pacific, and should also be a great match.)

Pacific up 9-8 in the first set with BYU hitting negative and Pacific hitting .286!

BYU sure does miss Hamson. They don't look like a top 15 squad.

BYU really not looking sharp so far. If it weren't for all of Pacific's service errors, they wouldn't even be in this first set...

Pacific looks much better than BYU on defense and setting. BYU has now made a setter change to Willardson, but Pacific is playing much better out of system, and Elman is doing a great job with 11 kills, hitting .409. Gray, for BYU, is really struggling.
