I was looking at the B12 standings...Doesn't Oklahoma State have a volleyball team? I guess not if there are only 9 teams.
You'd think T Boone could give some more money to fund a volleyball team. Can't imagine it'd cost that much.
Everything I see refers to ISU being at the top - no mention of a tie with Texas. I believe because we have the better overall record? Not sure.
Here's an older article that briefly mentions it.

Here's your standings. ISU is tied with Texas at the end of the first half of the season.

The win at College Station was big, showing the ladies can win big conference games on the road. Second half we have to go to Texas, OU, BU, and MU. I think MU has been a disappointment to date and may have under performed to date. They have actually been outdrawing us so it will be a tough place to play this time. BU surprised us a couple of years ago down there while we were on our way to a 17-3 conference season.

We have the better overall record, but Texas has the tie-breaker since they beat us in Ames. Huge match this Friday (10/28) when we travel to Austin. We need to win there since we still have to go on the road to OU who beat Texas in Norman.
Thanks for the clarification - everything ISU said we were atop the Big 12, checked Texas articles and they never mentioned a tie or even their standing. Big game this weekend and hope our girls can get the win!
The Daily story states:
Filling in off the bench for a struggling Hannah Willms, Hurtt tallied up four block assists to go along with her six kills.
Why does she "struggle?"
