So the first of 2 matches start on Friday, May 6th at USC.
Let me tell you the information about this event is crazy detailed.
www.teamusa.org/usa-volleyball/events/international/usav-cup
I mean the rosters are posted here. (no they are not sense the sarcasm)
Will Speraw be making the commute back and forth?
Kind of mirrors the great marketing of the men's NCAAs.

Last year we played Iran. There was a boys volleyball tournament at Anaheim that same weekend with over a hundred teams. You would think there would be somebody at the tourney promoting the event, maybe giving team discounts? Seemed like an obvious thing to do. Not even a poster or anything.

I bet they withheld making roster public since top players would not be there. Well played USA Volleyball...well played.

Is it not illegal to screen during the serve? Just saw the players purposefully bunch to the left in front of the server...

Does anyone know where to get the rosters for this anywhere online?

This is basically our 3rd and 4th team guys with the exception of Kawika Shoji and Dustin Watten. I think it's good to get some international experience for these guys (since the Rio roster is set), but I wouldn't show up to watch this group compete.

What a disappointment! Spent over $40 for a ticket and almost an hour driving the 15 miles in cross-town traffic. Then pick up the roster and see that no one (with the possible exception of K. Shoji) who is going to Rio was on the roster.
Already bought a ticket for Long Beach, but don't thing it is worth the effort.

Watched on live stream last night and I thought it was interesting to see some of the younger guys in the pipeline. Maybe it just me but I like minor league baseball too. Player development and the drama of the climb and all. Shout out to my flyboy Greg Petty !

How about the 'Ace Girls' though? I mean I just looked forward to any timeout or intermission.

Not sure why people are so surprised with the roster.
In addition we should not be surprised that USA volleyball released the roster in the last minute like they did.
They know how vb people think.

I agree with akbar, no cause for surprise here.
Micah just finished his season about a week ago, so did Dave Lee, Dave Smith, Thomas Jaeschke, Russell Holmes, Paul Lotman, Jayson Jablonsky, Erik Shoji, Murphy Troy and Taylor Sander. Matt Anderson and Max Holt finished their season about 2 weeks ago. Aaron Russell is still playing.
