He is better than Jake Langlois. What about Matt Walsh for FOY?

It's going to be really hard to pick an AA team with all of the juggling going on at so many schools. S: Christensen, West, Seif, Hutz OH: Jaeschke (PoY), Taylor, Hershko, Langlois, Powell, Russell, Kessel, Michelau MB: Averill, McAndrews, Walsh, OPP: Sedore, LaCavera, Donahue, Mather L: Brinkley FoY: Szerszen (Hathaller a distant second and Jendryk thrid) The team I selected is as much who I think they'll choose as much as who deserves the honor. They may choose Kalmbach over Taylor. I'd love to see Saetta get some love, but Brinkley and two pin hitters will likely get the nod from UCI. I think Lewis might get a third player (mosty likely Petty), but only listed two. Loyola will get at least three players named. I only put one BYU player on the team because McGowen has juggled that lineup so much that no one is putting up AA numbers. From the MIVA, Omar Rivera and Marcon Niemczewski could sneak in there as well. I think the PSUIVA gets two players at most. Assuming the Conference Carolinas gets a player, it has to be Michelau or his teammate Perez-Vargas. There is a good deal of volleyball still to play, and it's been a crazy season in many ways. Perhaps someone like Orenic will put up AA numbers the rest of the season and cement a spot. I think the team that wins the MPSF will get three players at least, so I have UCI with three at the moment, but would adjust in the event another team wins the conference title.

Thought it would be fun to drag this post back and look at how these calls might have changed. Making a new call now that the season is about up. Setters: Micah, hutz, west Middles: averill, Olson, grosh byu, idk who else, Walsh(s)? Outsides: jaeschke, taylor, Caldwell?, Powell (don't like though), petty (not a fan either, just because), Russell psu, herschko passing is just too atrocious from Lewis I don't know how they win. Haven't watched much though Opp: kalmbach, la camera L: Brinkley, Anderson, don't think kanetake is good enough in sr, and overpasses free balls frequently Foy: Walsh, jendryk

Setters - Micah (1st team), West (1st team), Seif, Hutz, Middles - Averill (1st Team), Olson, Benesh, UCI middles ? OH - Jaeschke (1st Team), Taylor (1st Team), Hershko (1st Team), A Russell (1st Team), Petty, Powell, Zarkovic? Opp - La Cavera (1st Team), Kalmbach, maybe Sedore L - Brinkley (1st Team), Anderson, Curry is solid from PSU

Middles Bobby Walsh 1st team Opp Eric Fitterer should be in the conversation as well

I would include Sedore in the AA conversation. Hawaii predicted to be 7th in conference...didnt make the playoffs last year....and has the potential to make it into the NCAAs for the first time since 2002 and is currently #1 in the MPSF standings. Sedore is another huge factor as to why Hawaii is as successful as theyve been this year. Id be surprised if Sedore isnt recognized somehow.
I know Jennings will not be an AA, but his setting is the reason UH is where they are. Setting is the difference from this year and last year.

I have a hard time seeing Christensen as a first team setter over West. If it was up to me, he would barely make third team all MPSF, he has been outplayed.
