She believes the Sun Devils had the best pair of wins out of any team in the tournament so far.
“They beat a Georgia team that could have been a tough matchup.” Chester said, “They convincingly swept them. Then, they faced a top 16 seed in this tournament on their home floor at BYU. And, again, it wasn’t even close. The defense is stellar. The offense is firing on all cylinders and is led by Marta Levinska. Their passing has been amazing, and their service pressure has been confusing opponents.”
Huge praise from a respected voice in Volleyball. Not only that, but she also named Levinksa to her rotation of the week as the Right Side.

“Levinska led the Sun Devils to two very impressive wins with 17 kills in each game,” Chester said.
Chester gave ASU a lot of praise today, but praise can’t beat Stanford, who has shown time in and time out they know how to win in December.
That game will be on Friday in Palo Alto.
