2. Florida: The Lady Gators are proving to be a tough team to handle. They posted two more wins to their resume when they beat Georgia and Minnesota. Florida will look to post another conference win this weekend against LSU.

3. Stanford: After two days of action against Texas, the Cardinal women added another win to their dual-meet record (3-0).
