    As reflected by the scores, we played pretty decently through the first three sets.  The only real standout bad was service errors.  We had 14, but they had 8 (they stopped we kept going).  Even with the close scores, it was clear that they were playing better, if not outright the better team.  Incredible digs, precise sets, hard, accurate attacks/kills from 2-3 different hitters.  We did have trouble getting the middles going, both offensively and on the block. I think Brionne got more time than MoJo, she got more "calls" both good and bad. They were missing in the first and fourth sets almost entirely. 

    We pretty completely fell apart in the fourth.  Back row errors, service errors, out of system all the time, long-wide attacks off of poor sets.

    But, as mentioned, Wisconsin played a higher level of volleyball across the board than we did, mainly in defense and setting, the setting paying dividends on their attack.

    Also, the precision of Wiscy's sets and attacks demonstrates that Shook isn't there yet.  The athleticism of our hitters can make up for some of it, but not all of it.

    Thank you

    There are rumors that we may be getting a commit from Croatia soon... hopefully, Mirta has helped to secure a 6 rotation, ball-control pin hitter who can pass the ball and play great back row defense. 

    And if Jerritt can get an experienced libero transfer, he should just go ahead and give her a scholarship.  If not, Sydney and Jhenna need to be ready to play because I don't want to see Autumn on the court next year.  Claire, maybe...but Autumn needs to stay on the bench. 

     

    Thank you.

  3. Could someone give a brief summary of the match. If there were any positives and the negatives. Dissapointed that they lost but these kinds of matches are good. Better to get exposed now early in the season and work on weaknesses than later in the season.

    20 blocks holy shit 

    Interesting, considering that was an area that some on here felt they needed to improve on from the match against Oregon.

    2010 National Championship pitcher Megan Lagenfeld

    Former Fresno Assistant Justin Shults - they had a pretty good offense

    4-time Michigan All-American Sierra Romero as volunteer assistant

    You would call that a great staff?  I would call that a staff with great name recognition but for the most part inexperienced including the head coach.
