I remember Lichtman when she was playing in BKS Aluprof Bielsko-Biała as setter, she was back-up for Wołosz. Her setting was awful..
She used to play both setter and outside hitter. Now she gave up setting and she's doing pretty good as OH.

I think Litchman played as OPP in Pan Am games in 2011 if memory serves.
Harmotto is listed as team captain for World Cup on FIVB site: http://worldcup.2015.women.fiv…teams/usa-usa/team_roster
So that could mean Thompson won't make the cut.
Harmotto was listed as captain in the final of WGP as well while Thompson was there too.
No Lloyd in the roster, what a shame
also, Harmotto was the captain in the WCh, wasn't she?
Yess She was
If Im not mistaken, US team has a groups of capitans...Harmotto, Thompson, Miyashiro, Alisha Glass....but Harmotto si the oficial one in the games
Gibby posted on her IG that she's going to Japan.
I don't know if it means something but Jackson posted a photo from their practise today and u can see 16 girls:
S: Alisha, Kreklow and Hugglund
OH: Larson, Hill, Robinson, Vansant, Easy
OPP: Lowe and Fawcett
MB: Foluke, Christa, Gibby, Dixon, Jackson
L: Hagglund
Banwarth missing , same as Murphy.. I don't know what roster would be like

You can see Banwarth and Murphy in this photo.
Compared with the list posted on WC website, I think only Thompson and Miyashiro weren't training today.
Well the line up would give you 5 middles and 3 setters, 5 outside hitters and no Banswarth so I can't see this being the 14 that they are sending for the first week of the WC
Gibby posted a photo here is the most of the roster:
S: Alisha is back! Molly
OPP: Lowe and Fawcett
MB: Gibby, Harnotto, Akinradewo, Dixon
L: Banwarth and Hugglund
OH: Larson, Hodge.. I guess Robinson and Hill are there too
A newspaper article from Stuttgart mentioned that Miyashiro will play World Cup...but not sure how reliable this is.

Hmmm. I am pretty sure I see Hugglund on the picture
I now read on volleytalk that Tamari hurt her knee this week on practice and that's why Natalie is there
And yeap the roster is the one I posted.. No Murphy, no Vansnat
Hodge being there and Vansant not must be a joke
It's surprising not seeing Vansant... on the other hand Kiraly thought and took Fawcett instead Murphy - now they have different types of OPs - not 2 lefties
What do you guys think about Rachel Adams? She was ther last year in the WCH, now this year it looks like that Gibby took her place in the first squad. Both had a really great season in Italy, so what are the reasons for this change, according to you? To me they are both so strong, and the choice would be really though as there are plenty of really good MBs!
