I am stunned at the head coach choice... What are you NOT stunned at?

FYI: Lowe will have been lifting, training, and playing for a full two months before this event, so let’s leave the “she won’t be at full strength” excuses at the door.

Training is all nice and well, but you need to get match experience to get back "in the groove". Its not going to all come back to someone immediately in their first match, especially someone who's been away for over a year, even with training.

I wonder why Alhassan did not make it to the roster considering that she was the best blocker for the past two occasions.
Mitchem did well in Italy, she will get a starting position... book it.
McCage also did well in Europe but I really don't see her pushing forward as a regular NT member.
Inky and Chiaka should get the starting roles.

Here’s what I’d like to see:
S - Carlini, Poulter L - Benson, JWO OPP - Lowe, Whitney OH - Anae, Lee, Mitchem, Rolfzen MB - Ajanaku, Ogbogu, Washington, a Tapp/McCage (I honestly don’t care which one)

Carlini and Lowe are likely a lock to start every match, one would think.

I feel like we're thin at libero. Would've liked to have seen Albrecht get a shot.

I'm disappointed that Amber Rolfzen didn't make the roster. I would've thought she's about the third strongest MB in this group.

I think Hunter has an outside shot at winning a starting position this summer.

I think Hunter has an outside shot at winning a starting position this summer. This is the Pan Am cup team not Nebraska starting line up. Albrecht got cut awhile ago.

Now this is the team the US should have sent to this years Montreux tournament coming up in Sept. Brazil, Turkey, China, Poland, Italy, and Russia will have teams there. Montreux will be more competitive then anything we will see in any of the continental tournaments. Too complicated to organize? Missed the signup deadlines? Not enough money to fund the travel? Just doesn't give a s---?

Notice the kind of totally unrealistic expectations he has for Lowe (and the unhealthy obsession he has for a particular someone who will never be back in a USNT uniform). It's like shhhhhhhhh thinks you can simply press a button and Karsta will be back to her old self immediately. Not so fast...
