Why 3 OHs only? What happened to Foecke?
She is back to the states preparing for her wedding on June 1st.
-
it's strange they didn't call up a 4th OH... can either drews or thompson receive serve?

Thompson can receive balls. I just don’t know how effective in this level.
Foecke is like 22 and already getting married.

4th week roster
- Setters (2): Lauren Carlini, Carli Lloyd
- Liberos (2): Megan Courtney, Mary Lake
- Middles (4): Tori Dixon, Lauren Gibbemeyer, Chiaka Ogbogu, Haleigh Washington
- Outsides (3): Michelle Bartsch-Hackley, Jordan Larson, Kelsey Robinson
- Opposites (3): Annie Drews, Karsta Lowe, Jordan Thompson
Only 3 OH and 3 OP? Seriously? Or kiraly will make Thompson as OH?
What happened to kim hill? All veteran OH are already playing and she wasn't on the list.
Offensive wise i don't think this is enough against china and turkey. Even poland they will have hard time.

Hill has just attended her sister's wedding recently, absent from NT training, so Kiraly brings Lowe to China for 14 roster.
-
So I guess Cuttino is out of the picture.
I also think Washington won't make the final roster so why bring her? Obviously it's Ogbogu, Akinradewo and one of Dixon, Gibby, Rettke
-
Akin is not in the wide roster of the VNL and a few people already said that Rettke is in a college event.
In a 14-player roster it is normal to bring 4 MBs.
-
Remember adams is also in the final 25 roster. We haven't seen her yet play.
It's really hard to select amongst the MB because they are quite good. The new additions are too good that will make dixon, gibb and adams a run for their money.
OH addition for me are weakest. I don't see kingdon and parson a biggest threat and a good or even better in the next couple of yrs than larson, hill, mbh & robinson.
US has wide roster for outside hitter. I don't believe kiraly picked the best of them.

I was hoping that kiraly will give her a chance. But, Thompson is doing great so far. And we all know kiraly loves lefy opposite too 😂
-
I like Gibb but I don't see her near the level of the other ones. Dixon has been a surprise for me. I think she has been better than Adams in these past years.

So that means Hill won't play this season of vnl? I just think that she is better than larson, mbh and Robinson in terms of offence which they really need right now.

I think she will be back in Final 6.

You're wrong. Dixon has been really reliable since she came into the international scene, signing with Rabita. She was really useful in the WCH 2014, and then after her injury in Japan, she's just a shadow of the player she once was. She's weaker than any other middle in the team right now

I'm not wrong. It's my opinion. There is no right or wrong. Thanks anyway
