    I saw the PH lineup just now:


    OH: Canino, Belen, Nitura, Gandler, Laure

    MB: Gagate, Sharma, Loresco, Palomata

    S: De Guzman, Lamina, Coronel

    OPP: Solomon, Cruz

    L: Catindig (Macandili), Nierva


    2 will be reserves

    Are there any replays of any of these matches?

    How has Suvurova been in France this season? I remember she won a best MB award/s in previous U tournaments.

    Anyway Nina Cajic is a very interesting prospect to me. I’m a huge ncaa fan as I live in America and so I watch almost every relevant match in NCAA volleyball for the last like 9 years. Nina has serious potential to be good for the national team. I don’t think she has very best in the world potential or anything but she’s very smart and has a great jump and sees the block well. Her attack from 6 is fantastic! To give some context she had better stats than Madi Skinner playing in the same conference with less talent around her

    I'm really excited for her as well and I hope she gets a chance in the national team. Hopefully she gets meaningful playing time in Indy Ignite because there are 5 OHs (including her) in their roster :pinch:

    Jedinstvo Stara Pazova


    Outside hitters:

    Una Vajagić

    Vajagic is going to Wisconsin, will the outside hitters also be coming from Omladinac?


    Do you know which team/s Tica received offers? Garotta mentioned Cuneo but I don't think there are other news for her transfer so far.


    Will the league be also streamed overseas? Two seasons ago, all the matches were streamed but I wasn't able to follow the previous season.

    I hope players from both positions get more chances in the next few events (especially the setters). I really liked Rada's performance. She wasn't in the VNL but I am excited for Vajagic in Wisconsin (+ Ivkovic in UCLA). Hope both of them grow their games a lot more in NCAA.

    You guys are the native speakers so correct me if I'm wrong, but it says Taubner will be out for months? That's honestly unfortunate :( Was looking forward to her debut in the senior's team as well. Does this mean Bjelica is the sole OPP for this week?


    Also quite unfortunate considering Taubner will play (?) in Potsdam next club season so that would also be delayed as well


    I'm not super familiar with Canadian women's volleyball but wasn't Ogoms lined up before? she's an MB iirc, wonder why she wasn't called up this season

    Yes, some of the best players right now are still in the University (maybe half of the NT roster can be University players for Women's) and they are not called to NT, for various reasons.


    Apologies for derailing this thread with all these PH NT conversations, so here's my last take on this: In Men's Volleyball, only 1 from the 2019 SEA Games silver medallist team is in the lineup this 2023 SEAG even though the players before are still some of the best players of the Philippines. Only 1 out of 14 with almost everyone begging off. That alone speaks how bad the situation is :aww:

    Primary reason being that the collegiate league isn't in sync with the FIVB calendar. But this is another conversation for another day :drink:I'm quite pessimistic about the team later but I hope they give a good fight to Indonesia :flower:
