From 2nd team all American to losing her starting spot...
Why didnt she start today? I figured she was injured but now I take it Wilson just beat her out. Wilson did great against Stanford, but why not Walbridge?
I always thought the reason Walbridge averaged 1 kill a game was because they simply didnt set her. She hits at a good percentage, but never got sets. Is she the victim of playing with 3 huge hitters who get 95% of the sets?

The end of MW? Perhaps...perhaps not. Medical back issue is no secret. I'd be inclined to wait and see how things shake out over the next two weeks. Hard to tell what is going on behind the scenes and in Russ' head.

Melissa had a back surgery her senior year in HS not sure if her back is an issue? She is one of the team captains I think?

I always thought a big big part of Walbridge's AA award should have gone to Totorello. Sammie has set the middle better than anyone else they've had the last two years. One of the bigger reasons....perhaps the biggest reason she hits at such a high percentage is that she has a few " pretty decent" offensive weapons hitting with her when she is on the court.

What about her blocking? . She started and played all weekend and hit 850% Not sure why he would not start her unless she was injured.
