No. 3 Stanford 3, No. 6 Texas 0

A rematch of last year's national title game wasn't filled with as much drama. Stanford rolled to a sweep over Texas to punch its ticket to the Final Four where No. 2 Florida awaits in Kansas City next Thursday. No. 1 Penn State and No. 5 Nebraska will battle in the other national semifinal game.

Stanford won each of the three sets by the same score: 25-21.

The Cardinal hit .304 and tallied eight blocks against the Longhorns, who miss out on a Final Four berth for the first time since 2011. Stanford, meanwhile, will make its 21st overall Final Four apperance, the most in the nation.

Pac-12 Player of the Year Kathryn Plummer once again led the way, posting 19 kills and tallying five digs. Audriana Fitzmorris added 10 kills and Meghan McClure racked up 14 digs.
