In the ouch match of the night......... I can see Oregon being really impressive when they are on with the offense that they run. Of course, if you are off, you can look awful with it. That hasn't happened much, though.

Washington's blockers were able to get out on Oregon's pin hitters. Arizona's haven't. In the battle between the quicks and the bigs, the quicks are winning. Mostly because Washington's serving put much more pressure on the Ducks' passing than Arizona's did. Can't run a fast offense if the passes aren't pinpoint, and UW's block is the best in the conference. Moore noted that the Arizona block was committing hard on our middles (not a completely illogical move if you've seen recent film because they've really been keeping the offense afloat lately). He thought the setters did a really good job of going away from the middle and racing the pin blockers outside. Maggie Scott and Kacey Nady are in a tight race for the "Candlelight's Favorite Player" award once Brenner graduates.

That hasn't happened much, though. Some of it is also whether the defense can adjust to the speed of the Duck offense. Some defenses can. Some (obviously) can't. First line of attack: serve hard enough to disrupt the Ducks. Second line of attack: speed up your blocking enough to keep up with the Ducks Third line of attack: just try to outscore them and hope you make fewer errors than they do

How many nights are you going to see Kingdon make multiple backrow attack foot faults? Is that scored as a hitting error or setting error? Hitting error,I assume. Actually, is there a setting error stat? Other than BHE?

An attack set overhand by a libero in front of the three-meter line should probably be a setting error. Though the same signal is given as for a back-row attack ("illegal attack"), the ref indicates the libero's number, not the hitter's [the ref also does that for a libero attack, but it is clear from circumstances which fault was committed].
It is possible for the hitter to be warned not to attack if someone notices that the libero's foot touched the court in front of the line... I think I have actually seen that... but it is really the libero's responsibility.

Brenner was getting set higher (and better) than she was at Stanford, and the results were noticeable: she looked more like her old self.

Interesting, I guess, but irrelevant, because the faults in question were Kingdon stepping on the line before she made the attacks.

If a setter sets a 1 too low and the ball is hit in the net, is that an error?

How many nights are you going to see Kingdon make multiple backrow attack foot faults? I hope never again - been a while since she has had one of her "earlier in season" matches. Not an all out excuse, but she is taking SO many swings, when there are other competent hitters (but NOT last night), that she may just be exhausted.
