No. 19 Texas A&M (4-4) knocked off No. 4 Stanford in 4 units to report its first ranked win of the season. It has been a tricky street via a difficult non-conference schedule chock-full of Prime 25 groups, however getting their first ranked win at Walt Disney World makes it just a bit extra magical.
The Aggies have been marred by errors this season, leaving them unable to tug off wins towards prime opponents. Nevertheless, on Wednesday evening, A&M put collectively its finest efficiency of the season. The Aggies jumped out early and took the primary two units (25-23 and 25-13) earlier than Stanford took the third (25-21) to keep away from the sweep. The women in Maroon & White closed it out within the fourth set (25-19) and completed the match with a .344 hitting share.
