What percentage of their serves go into the net??
Snarky.
I was comparing it to my daughter’s middle school club volleyball.
I told my wife, whoever wins set 2 wins the match.Not winning that second set is gonna hurt.
These announcers are annoying. All Stanford.
Then you get the sneaky kid who serves darts underhand and nobody can return it because they never see underhand serves and they don't expect every serve to go in.
I'm sure Stanford fans said they were all Penn State for the first set and a half. They've been very fair.
We're in trouble though. No answer for Plummer right now.
I started taking a shot everytime the announcers said Katherine Plummer and I'm at a .057 BAC

Last year was her first year playing club volleyball. Her team was brutal. As the year progressed my frustration grew. The lack of players moving towards to the ball, the relentless attack of whistles, the annoyance of parents yelling, “That’s OK!” as the ball falls gently to the ground while the players just watch it as if the were watching butterflies land on tulips in a field. So, I retreated more and more to contain my frustration, not wanting it to spill out. At the last tournament of the year I sat in the front row of the stands, a reasonable distance away from the other parents. By this point I was wearing headphones and listening to music to block out the whistles and mindlessly approving parents while also helping me to escape the frustration of thevplay in the court. During one game I watched five straight plays where nobody moved towards the ball on the serve. After the last one- in my own headphone induced world- I blurted out, “Aw for f#%& sake!”. After noticing all the parents looking at me I realized what I had said and apologized to them.
We led 20-16 in set 2. Championship teams don't blow a late 4 point lead. Now down 2-1. If it's any consolation, I don't think either of these teams beats BYU.
BYU already has and they are also playing at a high level.If Stanford plays like they are right now it's going to be tough for anyone to beat them
If it's 10U or 12U that is pretty standard. If it's 14U, you may want to look at a different club, she isn't going to get anything out of being on a team like that. I officiate all over and there are some ridiculous 10U teams that I've seen at AAU grand prix around the lancaster area. Rallies last forever though, because everything over the net is essentially a free ball, and everyone on the team is essentially a libero and nothing hits the floor.
Not winning that second set is gonna hurt.
I believe this is the first group of Penn State seniors in 14 years that did not win at least 1 national championship.

Agree!We led 20-16 in set 2. Championship teams don't blow a late 4 point lead. Now down 2-1. If it's any consolation, I don't think either of these teams beats BYU.
Although I thought Texas played pretty well. Gave BYU quite a few points. Tough front line for Tx.BYU already has and they are also playing at a high level.
Sweeping Texas was impressive.
I said they had to win the second set at the time.... While they were playing well, Stanford was playing at home, and we needed to create a Big deficit to make them :turtle" a little. Didn't happen. DARNKey to everything tonight.
Down hill after that.
Proud of them anyway!!
A shame the Ladies let up in Set 2, they were playing SO WELL. They were never ever able to regain the mo.
It seemed that they were not the same after the challenge by RR in the middle of the 2nd set........ Lost their focus and then Stanford took the momentum...
I believe this is the first group of Penn State seniors in 15 years that did not win at least 1 national championship.
nope. Young team this year. Will be a top favorite next year. Last yrs team was the one destined to win but lost in semifinals.Question for those more knowledgeable than I .... has Russ lost his fastball these days?

What's the question?Question for the board: I watched all 4 matches today. Excellent V-ball all around (expect for MAYBE Oregon). This year it SEEMS that the top 7-8 teams are closer in talent then I have ever seen. Yep, one team maybe slightly better, however, The "closeness" of these teams is amazing. Makes for some great V-ball. On a side note: very impressed with the freshman talent this year... Jonni, Eggleston and others that I can not remember.

yea, lost indeed but had match point in the semi and bungled it. If they had won there I have no doubt they would have taken Florida in the final.Nop
