Shut up.

30-16, 30-18, 30-20 or something like that.

Of interest to me, at least, was Tan was playing MB and Cowles and Dieter LB. Cowles, in particular, looked very good back there. Dieter had a very good match offensively. Passing was OK. Not great.

Seems like I'm in the minority sometimes, but I also think the 2007 Hartmann model is much improved over the 2006 one. I'd love to see the slide to Gibby connecting more often, but she does have the middles much more involved.

Vatterrodt looked good at opposite. What I also like about her there is that she seems to have the hands to play the position.

Courtney served Haley at least once. The nerve!

Fallon, I thought, played well when she was in. Served very well, nice hard jumper. Unlike Roysland she seems like she can move it around. Wonder if we will see more of her this weekend.

I, too, noticed the change in the back row with Tan in the middle. Have to ask about that.

Is Hartmann a great setter? Probably not but I think she is doing much better this year. Had two solo blocks tonight which was good to see.

Dieter hit .581 with 21 kills on 31 swings. Nice to see that production.

Roerhig had a very nice night, too, with 12 kills. Started hot, something like 3 or 4 of the match's first 5 points.

Saw some swings tonight from Hagerty that made me understand why the coaching staff likes her. Hit with plenty of force.

Nice to see that Mike used his bench a lot tonight. Everyone except Schneider and Phillips saw time.

Hopefully, they keep this up tomorrow.

Seems like Rachelle's a better hitter from the left than the right.

How poetic.

Technically, can one typing shut up?

I'm referring to the comments being made out loud.

Turns out Charlotte has a Jennifer Webb playing for them.

I also noticed they finally put tape down for the lines, rather than confusing everyone with the maroon paint. I wonder what prompted that?

Perhaps it was confusing the Gophers as much as opponents this year with so many new players?

Thanks, I thought something looked different, besides being really bright in the Pav, and thought the lines were different. But I thought it was just my mind going soft. Again.

Do you think that is why Hebert put in Wilber tonight? ;D

Charlotte Rae?
