  • WL 2nd leg roster (@ Rome)


    Opp: Anderson, Troy
    OH: Russell, Sander, Priddy, Jaeschke, Muagututia
    MB: Lee, McDonnell, Smith
    S: K. Shoji, Christenson
    L: E. Shoji


    Jaeschke is back, I doubt Muagututia traveled to Rome maybe they made a mistake there
    Holt traveled with the team to Rome but he won't play this week so Speraw called Mcdonnell.


    Holmes & Watten left the team

  • Thanks, If they want to have more than 12 players they must announce two Liberos, so maybe Muagututia is registered as a Libero or just is there for training.
