As No. 2-ranked Texas aims for
an outright Big 12 volleyball championship with a win over Oklahoma, the Longhorns also will celebrate their four seniors playing their final regular-season match — outside hitter Ebony Nwanebu, middle blockers Chiaka Ogbogu and Mirta Baselovic, and libero Cat McCoy. They will be presented with flowers and framed jerseys and will have their career accomplishments announced....Baselovic, however, doesn’t have the résumé of her fellow seniors. But her leadership — and one big block in 2015 — have been invaluable for the program....Baselovic hasn’t played this season as Texas has gone with Ogbogu, a three-time All-American, and junior Morgan Johnson in the middle.
“Everybody wants to play, but when you come to a team like Texas, you have to know that there are some great players here,” Baselovic said. “Our goal is to win, and not one player wins. My thinking before the season was I was going to do whatever I had to for us to win.”
