The Gophers volleyball team may have a new head coach in Keegan Cook but some things don't change, like a monster nonconference schedule ahead of Big Ten play. The Big Ten/Big 12 Challenge will take place at home this season on Aug. 25-26 with the Gophers facing TCU and Baylor. After spending August at home, the Gophers will head out in September for road matches at Florida and the Big Ten/Pac-12 Challenge in Palo Alto, Calif., where the Gophers will face Oregon and Stanford. The nonconference schedule concludes with the Diet Coke Classic at the Pavilion with High Point and Creighton. Of the eight nonconference opponents, six finished last season ranked in the AVCA poll: No.
