The internet broadcasts are okay for one announcer but the interviews have sucked.

The first time, I thought Lambo had a dead mic. But now I think that only one mic can be fed down the pipe. :( Another major shortcoming of this Internet-only nonsense.

That 3rd set hurt. Shocks really needed that one. That was a great opportunity missed.

[WuDrWu]

0-3 on set points....have to capitalize.

Let's go Shocks!!

Wow, 3-11 on blocks.

Letting that 3rd set get away was the real killer.

I don't think this is a record a volleyball team wants to strive for, but it seems WSU now has it:

Rob Anderson @_robanderson
Wichita State's 127 points last night were most in NCAA history in 25-point era. BGSU's 124 were most for a loss. @ncaastats @AVCAVolleyball

I don't think this is a record a volleyball team wants to strive for, but it seems WSU now has it:

Agreed, but at least the Lady Shockers will be listed as the winners.

Not sure what a match like the Shocks ad BG played says about the teams. Evenly matched. Both teams lack go-to terminator. Both teams just refused to give-in and battled with all they had to win. Perhaps a little bit of all of these.

One thing the Shocks did poorly against BGSU was serve. 3 aces and 12 service errors. Fortunately, the Shockers were quick to correct that problem serving a combined 17 aces vs on 10 service errors in the Pepperdine and Creighton matches.
