Parra blocked touched it, then bumped it, and hit it...2 contacts in a row

I hope Devin transfers...fuck Elliott for putting Wenaas back in
-
I'd rather see Devin swing aggressively and miss than Jenna get blocked or just push it over
-
Should have gone after Sauer in the transfer portal over Wenaas

Wenaas is just….Elliot, come the fuck on
7-0 run for Houston. Make that 8-0 and 25-17 UH
1-1
I have to imagine there were some promises made to Wenaas for her to transfer here...No way we get out of the regionals with her starting.
Elliott needs to put in Devin or burn Byrd's redshirt...hell, try Kenna Miller at this point...just go to the bench and develop them, if not for now then for next season.
Wenaas makes too many mistakes that add up and puts the team in a hole. I think it's telling when even Ella has stopped setting her unless she really has no other option.

Wenaas with an overpass and UH kill...please get her out.

Looks like they're sticking with Wenaas. Kind of surprised.
Wenaas must be the BEST practice player to get the start...cuz she is terrible in-game.

Granted it’s the end of the set, but he takes out our best scoring middle….yet he doesn’t take out the OH that’s bleeding points when she’s in….make it make sense to me!

Wenaas needs to be pulled! Can’t pass, can’t hit.

F’n ridiculous

At least Wenaas is starting to swing hard...her finesse play isn't effective if she doesn't start off swinging hard each set...

How is Clarissa so bad at passing the ball
That's been the schtick with Jerritt, doesn't prioritize on passing because he usually has the terminal hitters to put the ball down in out-of-system swings. But there's more parity and teams are developing better hitters.
He doesn't coach them to pass with precision...just to get the ball up, especially on transition defense

+ SKT, I think Ella is pretty good and has a high ceiling, but still a step back at setter IMO
Ella needs a lot of work

Can't believe how bad Barnes has been...she was touted as one of the best passers in the NCAA last year
Wenaas is just terrible against good blocking teams...she can't hit out of system and the team can't pass
-
The biggest weaknesses that need to be addressed this week are serve-receive passing and production at the OH2 position (Wenaas' spot).
Barnes was supposed to come and stabilize the backrow but she has progressively worsened each match (just my observation). Maybe it's because she is playing out of her natural left back (libero) position, but so far her ball control has been really streaky in both the middle and right back positions. And I think that has affected Akana from playing at a high level since she is now having to adjust to playing middle back, instead of her natural position at right back.
If Barnes continues to struggle, I'd actually like to see Wenaas replace her and just focus on her backrow play. Then Byrd can rotate in and hit for her on the left pin when she rotates to the front row. Byrd can provide the hitting production that the team desperately needs on the left pin, and Jenna can still be an offensive outlet attacking from the backrow if needed. Plus, this move would also allow Akana to play in her right back position.
I think this change can help stabilize the ball control issues. If not, then Air Byrd can just go up and attack the ball with whatever out-of-system set she gets. Either way, with her vertical jump and fast arm swing, she's going to be terminating the ball at a higher clip than what Wenaas has been producing at.

God damn, Parra had 34 kills today
I would take her over Wenaas anyday....but she probably would have struggled with Ella's setting
-
Passing broke down and they had a complete meltdown
-
Transition offense looking better as well

Swindle’s location in the 4th has been less than good
15-14 Ohio State
she’s young and unfortunately really inconsistent…

Bergmark is a better middle than O’Neal right now. If she incorporates a slide…
she had the benefit of working with her over the summer while Asjia was playing with the national team.

i’m just glad Jerritt finally made the needed change

Devin looking quite terminal.
yes, my bad

Devin may not be terminal but she at least puts heat on the ball on out of system swings so that its not a free ball to the other team
