Jordan struggled passing and moving yesterday. Not sure if she is sick, injured or just getting a break.
Robo played better today than yesterday, but Murphy or Hill deserved the award more.

Her and Dietzen were both not on the roster today. I expect it's to rest up for more important matches. I'm sure they were both tired after playing in all of the matches up to this one. This isn't like the Olympics, where they get a day of rest in between each match.

Tori Dixon has been a great addition to the team. I'm really impressed with her!

Now they move from the Sauna of Modena back to the comforts of Verona. Although they seemed to thrive in the indoor steam bath so I don't know if that's a good thing. Crowds seemed a bit more active in Verona at least. The Italian PA guy in Modena had to break Foluke's name in to bite size pieces to pronounce it: Akin Rahhhhd Dayy Wo....with big pauses in between each syllable.
Serbia is playing very well. Dare I say it... they could be the best team they've faced so far. Another win or a big dose of reality?

If you go beyond the offensive stats and look at 'serve reception', you'll see Kelsey was a very busy girl: Reception Tot Err Pos% (Exc%) Banwarth 12 0 50% (33%) Hill 14 1 21% (-) <- no excellent! Robinson 19 1 42% (26%)

Was more impressed with Kelly Murphy than Robinson.

Was more impressed with Kelly Murphy than Robinson. Maybe Kelly wouldn't have looked as impressive spiking without as many peach passes to Glass? She got lots of one on ones because Alisha was able to run the offense. Really, despite occasional lapses here and there this is collectively the best they've looked in service reception in a couple years. In my opinion it's the number 1 reason for their performance so far in this tournament.
