"We’re go ing to focus on ourselves and being consistent with our play.” A&M volleyball coach Laurie Corbelli said the two teams are very similar and the Aggies will have to execute offensively and de fensively to come out on top. “We know that Texas is very balanced, and they’ve got a lot of power,” Corbelli said. “A lot of things we did against them the last time we played them were un characteristic of us.” “What’s important in this match is sticking to our game plan,” Howes said. “If we can perform tv.we' well in every aspect of os the best of ourabil initely beat them.” The Aggie seniors aief ly finding their rolesii Senior middle Woolsey leads the teas second in the Big 12w hitting percentage.Sht the team in kills per blocks per game, respectively.
