Stanford’s women’s volleyball team has two different tests waiting in North Carolina: a Duke team level with it in the ACC standings, followed by a Tar Heels squad that has dropped just one conference match.

For Saratoga viewers following the Cardinal, the weekend starts Friday, Oct. 23, at 3:30 p.m. PDT against Duke on ACC Network Extra. Sunday’s match at North Carolina begins at 5:30 p.m. PDT Oct. 25 on ESPN, according to Stanford’s Oct. 20 preview.

No. 15 Stanford enters at 12–6 overall and 5–3 in the ACC. Duke is also 5–3 in conference; No. 23 North Carolina is 7–1.

The Cardinal comes off home wins over Wake Forest and NC State. Now it must reproduce that form away from home, starting with an opponent trying to separate itself from the same spot in the conference race.
