OT: PSU Women's Volleyball
- Thread starter BOSCO2
- Start date
Great match last night. Creighton played tough!
Nebraska next, who they beat in the season (loss was to Wisc and Pitt)Then either KY or Pitt. They beat Louisville in season also.
Edit- I was wrong, Louisville not KY. I mixed them up in my old brain since Louisville is in KY but not all KY is Louisville.

I've been following the volleyball this year closer than previous years, even watching the non-PSU matches this tournament. Good year to jump on the bandwagon, PSU has a fun team to watch. They might take a step back after this run, since the stars are mostly senior transfers, but I imagine a run like this helps recruiting, along with the fact that one of the stars--setter Izzy Starck--is a freshman.

Pitt or Louisville. And it's in Louisville.
From what I understand, they have a Cael like recruiting class coming in.Someone on FB posted this photo.

Plus Jurevicius is a red shirt freshman and played really well
Based on his last Monday morning interview, it sounds like Cody is a fan.
I always like coaches that are able to get out of their own foxhole and appreciate what other teams at their school are doing.

Looks like they just got a huge transfer from OSU too.
Yes, including another Jurevicius plus Patrick Ewing's daughter.
Penn State and Nebraska played only one match this season at REC hall and PSU beat them 3-1 to clinch a share of the BIG tittle. Now I have a dilema, I've got ticket to the Journeymen duals on Sunday and if PSU beat Nebraska. I live proximity to both events and have to watch one via my phone LOL
A bigger name Emmi Sellman just transfered to PSU from tOSU. I think she went to the same HS with Ewing's daughter.
Glad to see the program headed back toward the Russ Zone. Loved watching the gals for years and read for more of the same (I hope). The athleticism is extraordinary.
womens team is always really good! for anyone that wants to know the wy sem and faith chris is on your tube the whole match!

davis just refuses to smile, doesn't he? how can you not be happy at a psu women's volleyball match?
Per ESPN
Semifinals are Thursday at 6:30 and 9:30 on espn, we are the later game.
Finals are Sunday at 3 on ABC
I love me some psu wrestling but if I could attend a championship for the Ladies I’d have to go that route.
I should have been clearer, I will also be in town tomorrow evening. Just looking for an excuse to go drinking.
He didn't say anything about leaving the bar between tonight and tomorrow night.
Brothers Bar & Grill has the most TVs. Typical bar food and lots of beer. And, the bar and bathrooms are cleaner than most. Actually cleaner than any in SC.
I'm seeing it listed with a 9:00 pm start time.

NCAA women's volleyball 2024: Scores, schedule, how to watch
Here's when all the games for the 2024 NCAA women's volleyball tournament will be played.
This says 9:30, other listings on ESPN say 9, PSU says 30 mins after first game. So, moral of the story, be ready for any time in the evening…

I'm not so sure about PSU's women's teams being better than the men's.
But, I'm sure Northwestern's women's teams are better than their men's. 😃
for sports with both men's and women's (from memory):
baseball/softball - both not traditionally good but i think softball has been better recently. calling it a push because they're not moving the needle
basketball - usually women, but rhoads looks like he might have something going with his recent recruiting. another push for both usually missing their ncaa tourneys
cross country - women's team made the ncaa championships this year and had a woman finish top 20. men's only sent 2 guys and both finished 100+
fencing - both good but idk how good
golf - both bad?
gymnastics - kinda hard to judge because there are only like 20 ncaa men's teams, but we just had an olympic medalist on the pommel so i'm giving it to men's
hockey - opposite problem with few women's teams but i think i'm going men since they were overtime away from the frozen 4 in 2023
lacrosse - both pretty good. men were a bad call away from a natty recently but i think the women have been more consistently in the top 15 nationally. push
soccer - women and it's not close
swimming and diving - no clue whatsoever so i'm assuming both bad
track and field - nod to the men with the ncaa 200m champ this year and olympic medalist on the shot put
tennis - both bad?
volleyball - men's team is usually top 10 but few programs. women's team top 10 vs every college under the sun so women take this one
so my count is:
men's - 3 (gymnastics, hockey, track and field)
women's - 3 (cross country, soccer, volleyball)
push - 7
Maybe a bad assumption.
Penn State swimming and diving had five current or former athletes competing at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Women's diving has Mary Ellen Clark, who won bronze medals in diving at the 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games.
(Boy time flies.)
If anyone is still up, Psu just forced it to set 5!
