No one answered this in the OSU-ILL thread, so a little help:
Just now against Illinois, Danielle Meyer's stats were:
27K 17D 1BS 11BA (which equals 6½ blocks)
Does this constitute a triple-double, or need she have 10 or more blocks (as in BS + BA = 10+)?

I am almost positive this counts. Block assists are only divided by two for the team total (I think).

Thanks, yappa. Now can I get a positive confirmation on the almost positive here?

No, I've never seen block assists count as a double -- it has to be total blocks, which, as you note, is 6.5. And they do divide by two for individual stats. Still, it's quite an impressive performance (5-gamer or not).

I believe this is a triple double. I know that UW's Reineke has had matches with double figure blocks before, such as 2 BS and 9 BA, and they counted it as a double double.

This is definitely a triple double.

For individuals, assists + solos are considered their total blocks, so Meyer did have a triple double with 12 total blocks. The team has 42 block assists and 2 solo blocks. To tally TEAM blocks, divide assists by 2, and count each solo as one. So, TEAM blocks are 23, which is a huge number. 3 of their players were in double digits for blocks, giving McCarthy a double-double with set assists and blocks (10), and Meyer a triple-double with kills, digs, and blocks (12).

Thanks, everybody. I'm going with IdahoBoy, as he's a HallofFamer here. OK, question #2: shouldn't a team with 23 blocks in one match be...well... better? Jeez... their hitting % was ghastly, but Ill's was worse. On further thought, I guess that was rhetorical.

I caught OSU v. Wisconsin on TV today with OSU running a 6-2. What is with their revolving lineup? I think that it is good to find a lineup that works , but sheesh!

Only for team stats do you use the calulation you mention. For individual stats you add solo and assist blocks together - so she's be credited with 12 blocks.

You're preaching to the choir here. According to the box score (at UI's site, "OSU STEALS Five-Game Victory Over Illini"), all three OSU setters played. Hone is listed with 5 games and Hughes with 2. But the stats tell me that McCarthy was the only setter. No Dozier today. Kristi Hunter was presumably the 2nd middle, and other than 7 hitting errors, she helped. Kastein was listed as Libero, so I don't know what Hone did, unless she stepped in to serve for Hunter.... And who "stole" what from whom, Chief Illiwilliwhat'shisdink? The Buckeyes had this match in the bag until Illinois stole game 3. ;D

Chief Illiwilliwhat'shisdink? Now, now. If you are going to start name calling, especially a revered SYMBOL of a great institution, then I will be forced to ask about your MASCOT. What is a buckeye anyway? Here's your answer -- a totally useless nut!

No, I've never seen block assists count as a double I went back through a bunch of box scores trying to find an example and could not, which probably explains why I haven't seen it. I defer to the rest of group -- it's a double (and a triple double at that).

STOLE game 3??? I was there and there was NO stole. UI outplayed OSU in games 3 & 4. OSU outplayed UI in 1,2, & 5 thus wining the match.
I would agree about the headline though. How do you steal a match against a team that's winless at home in the B10. OSU deserved to win because they outplayed UI in the majority of games.
