Shockers at the LUV Invitational to Open the Season

[WuDrWu]

Abby Pugh, Emma Wright, Brooke Smith, Chase Jackson and Jenna Mak all made the trip apparently. Now I have no idea. Maybe Hannah didn't make the traveling team this weekend I don't know.

@WuDrWu are you on hand in Nashville? Did you see my previous post regarding the roster limit being an AAC rule? Has that 15 traveling team limit been adopted by the NCAA for all events?

I've mentioned this before but outside of maybe 10 to 15 teams the parity in D-1 WVB is pretty darn good and much better than WBB for example.

Unfortunately no. Planning on the Florida and Tulsa/SMU swings this season as the only road trips for me, until (hopefully) postseason.

Did you win the trip with team on the Orlando/Tampa Swing at the VB101 Dinner?

No, I've been sitting on a couple of bump vouchers that are going to expire so we decided to scout the Orlando area for the AAC Tournament in March next year. Those live auction bidders are nuts!

Starters are Raudsepp, Pugh, Wright, Brown, Hiebert, Civita, Lehman.

Certainly didn't expect 2 freshmen starters.

Some of that sure went for more than I was expecting it would. What was it $3,500 on the Orlando/Tampa trip.

Am I the only one who has lost the audio stream?

Got it back.

I assue one of the freshman will rotate out when Giorgia enters.

Inauspicious start with Emily getting a service error right out of the gate. 0-1

That's a rarity for Emily. Opening match jitters maybe. Shocks need to get through about 20 points in this first set to perhaps shake off the 1st match jitters.

Emma Wright serves leaving Wright, Hiebert and Brown on the back row. POW6R

[WuDrWu]

Alex Koon serves for Emma Wright and then right back out for Wright.

13-12 Shocks. Sounds like we're keeping it very simple early and will adjust as the match progresses.

15-14 Shocks
