Plummer has no killer instinct. If it ain't perfect for her liking she'll just tip the ball.

Retkke has improved so much with her a-quick.
-
The levEl of players of Ecza are up and down. Love the Boskoball in latter part of set 4 with Rettke helping her by serving Arina exclusively 😂
-
Louisville looked much better with Glock as setter today. DBK should have figure it out.
All that efford to take down Stanford and Pittsburgh just to choke so bad...
Louisville's middles are little bit better than Penn's but their reception was really bad without their injured star player.
-
The freshman setter of Penn is really good. I hope Murzik's receive will improve during her pro season.
-
I think this is over.

No matter who wins this will probably be the weakest champion since ??
Years, if not decades.
Since Oregon-Texas finals. But at least they are in equal footing and entertaining at the same time.
-
Sofia Maldonado Diaz will be a good addition to Mexican NT.
-
2nd set is an instant classic and it's not even done yet.

Rumored to be joining Indonesian League. League will start late December or January I think.
He is starting all over. He was at his peak at least near peak when he suddenly left. I hope he still joins the national team.

now it pisses me off more that women had to retire in Japan when they get married
It's a woman's duty to take care of the household. I bet she's planning to get pregnant in few months time.

So he will now destroy the men's team.
Destroy how?

Fearless forecast: Zhu will find her way to the bench.

Damn! That's 22 years of domination.
I really thought Federer will have longer longevity because the other 2 play rough but it was Nole lasted longer. I have a feeling that OG was his last major win.

VNL is not that important but very beneficial to get some reps. In the first few editions of VNL, USWNT used it to prepare for their core team changing line ups every other match and still winning. When Tokyo came, they were very prepared and can interchange any player in their roster and still get the desired result. This helped them win the gold at the Olympics.
I understand that some top teams and players opt to skip this because of the long professional season but for NT purposes, this can actually help the team to see their weaknesses and improve it later on as well as experiment with starting line up that actually works.

She was great throughout the event - Italy would crush Brazil as well - and team USA not getting any award as a silver medalist would be weird.
It will be weird if the silver medalist doesn't have an individual award. She did great the whole tournament except for this final game. I think it's just fair.
Finally Italy won a medal and gold at that. They created a team chemistry that was lacking for how many years. I will give Orro the credit for this win. If she was playing just like last year, Italy would be in limbo. She learned to set each player their preferred ball speed and height. They will be dangerous for the next quad.
USA as host next Olympics will still be a contender. I know Karch will stick around and will continue doing their brand of fast plays. I hope the girls will be able to perfect this type of play like what they Tokyo girls did.
-
sorry i to say this. USA was just LUCKY! They didn't play Italy, chn,serbia or even turkey in QF/SF. Lol
A team in this tournament will not have luck in such a competitive environment. Italy is just too strong for any team. No team stand a chance against them. Every position they are above any team. Setting position was the only missing link and Orro showed up this whole summer.
-
This is over.
Not the best way to end an Olympic match.

Plummer has checked out.

Orro has been the xfactor.
