If Lane retired to pursue Law, why is she training everyday ? Training with...?

Summer is playing with Natalie Hagglund. Is Hagglund done with indoor?

SR & NH seems an odd pair at this time.
No doubt she is a solid indoor defender. Not too long ago her collegiate supporters on this board had her starting for the Rio indoor run.
That transition didn't come to fruition & I don't see this as a barn burning team out of the gate.
I hope if works for both as Summer needs some one better than Lane and that's a tuff call for NH out of the gate and into the sand.

I saw on FB today Summer & Geena Urango...Still shocks me that April is not taking 2017 off... That would be rather...sudden, I guess. Are you talking about that photo tagging Summer and Geena (that was just a pic of them playing against each other), or something else? BTW, Summer and Kim DiCello are playing together at a NORCECA event right now, but I think that's a marriage of convenience (so to speak) for this event. Oh, and another new partnership: Emily Day/Brooke Sweat.

Geddy - Saw it under a post about Geena winning most improved but maybe it was someone hoping. What happened to Lauren & Brooke? Appeared LF was playing the best VB of career. Bummed about Nicole Branagh retiring...Always enjoyed watching her play.... Brooke and Lauren staying together would be an admission that both players lack ambition. Their results were mostly awful the last year or two. I like Summer going outside of current players. There is no one on tour now outside of Kerri/April and USC that she can win consistently with. I like what this pickup says about her ambition. Plus at 5'9 Hagglund is about the same size as Lane. Im not sure what to make of Brooke/Emily. If I were Brooke I would be calling Fopma, neither did well after that break up and maybe they should realize the grass wasn't greener

So, how does it work for players like April and Fendy, with their husbands taking coaching positions outside Southern California? Do they stay in So. Cal. to train?

If Lane is committed to playing this season it's silly her and Summer don't stay together. They are each the best option for the other. Plus, they'll be in a good situation points-wise. I don't see greener grass for either of them.

Jamie Broder is playing with Melissa Humana-Peredes in Norceca, is that a partner change or is Kristina Valjas just off for that tournament?

Saw that. Somewhat similar to Pavan, as in a very tall opposite making a late switch to beach. But Flier is a better athlete than Pavan, and has a huge serve (which I hope she brings to the beach). I'll be very interested to see her play.

Heard that Reid Priddy is transitioning to sand... who will his partner be?

Hey Geddyleeridesagain....Have you heard for certain if Kerri & April are playing together in 2017? Just looking for new info on any new partnerships happening! And is Rosey returning? I heard it from April, so I'm assuming that it's a done deal - barring something unusual happening. Haven't heard anything about Rosey one way or another.

Rosie and Trevor Crabb is the word

Really? I thought it was rumored that Trevor and Mayer were playing together; IMO, not a winner. Johnny would be much better served (figuratively) playing with Ryan. Treavor playing with Rosey could be fun to watch short term (while he is waiting for Tri to finish up playing with Hyden).
