Shocker VB v Memphis

[WuDrWu]

From Volleytalk-

Rice is without its top offensive player for at least a few weeks. Also, one of the starting DS/Liberos for a bit.

Neither Gaby Mansfield

nor Cindy Tchouangwa

played last night. That's a substantial amount of production to lose.

South Florida 3-2 North Texas
23, 32, (20), (14), 10

That 32-30 second set must have been pretty wild.

34-32 actually, so even more of the barn burned.


EDIT: Interestingly, NT outscored USF for the entire match by seven points.

Was hoping that NT could have pulled out a victory. That 32-30 second set must have been pretty wild.

Swifty had one heck of a night. 18 kills 5 errors on 40 attempts, hitting.325, 3 aces with only 1 service error, and 10 blocks- 1 solo, 9 BA. This might be her first double double of the season. We only had 12 total blocks and Sarah also had a solo block. Swifty was a blocking machine tonight.

Izzi and Emerson both almost had double doubles, 9 kills each. Izzi had 20 digs, Emerson had 12. Annalie had 21 digs, Katie had 19.

Thought Brooklyn might have had an injury as she didn't start the match, but came in later.

#6 was tearing us up all night long with her 4 to 4 cross court shot.

Seems like we changed up our defense against their right side attack, on several occasions there was only one blocker when they set their right side.

We should have won set 3. Swifty got her second ace of the set to tie it at 21 all and had momentum, but just couldn't find the floor. Set 4, which we also could have won, had 20 ties and 10 lead changes. Glad they pulled out the victory, but the match was probably 2 sets too long.

We were almost decent when we could pass the ball.

Food for thought

This is early because I’m turning this crap off

Leggett needs to be in the lineup no matter what no clue why she wasn’t to begin with

We lose in three sets if this isn’t a bottom half AAC team

Worst volleyball I have seen in a long time

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

Call me fair weather don’t care this is a loss in my book

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

Rough night for Gonzales

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

Do we lose this game?

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

Leggett is the spark of offense we need feed her more!!!

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

Finally Lambo took you long enough

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

We need offense it’d be nice if we had some off the bench oh wait we do it’s laughable that there is 21 kills on the bench

[MADSHOCKERFAN89]

If this is Rice we lose in 3 sets no competition
