So I am hearing persistent rumors that Zhu will be leaving Vakifbank. Now I am hearing rumors that Lonneke Slöetjes will also be leaving Vakifbank and move to the Chinese League? Apparently sources are saying some team, said to be Tianjin, is willing to splash big dollars to get Sloetjes. Any confirmation to this story? I think Sloetjes is leaving is likely true with all the talk about Haak having already communicated with Vakifbank. Rasic was reported to be heading to the Russian League to join Maja Ognjenovic in Dynamo Moscow, but then some said she will instead stay in Turkey. With Zhu expected of leaving C. Bosetti and Gabi Guimares have been options for Vakifbank to sign. Guidetti also seemed to have been preparing Ebrar for next season by using her as an OH. I haven't heard anything about Kelsey as of yet. I've also been hearing rumors about Zhu and Sloetjes joining the same team. Supposedly Beijing and Tianjin are the front-runners fighting for Zhu. Tianjin's coach in an interview after the season ended said that the team has intentions of adding more fire power at opposite and also a world class outside hitter (Sloetjes and Zhu?). He said that they've already made contact with them. At first I thought it was Larson that was going to join Tianjin, but then there are rumors that she and Louisa Lippman of Germany will sign with Shanghai.

Beylikduzu (Lee, Hunter, Drews) will play T.H.Y. for 5th place in this league. I wish they had finished at least 6th in the regular season so they could have had a chance at a final four spot. Drawing Eczacibasi for the quarters was less than ideal. Still I’m proud of them for at least finishing in the top half of the league.
Hoping we see Hunter in the gym this summer and also anxious to see how Lee and Drews do as well.

I can't really see Drews making much more time in the USA gym. If she's having error issues when attacking, Lowe coming back into the gym as well as Abercrombie having success in her league and the growth of old teammate Danielle Cuttino, her days are numbered if she doesn't clean up her play.

Where will Robinson go next season? I heard rumors earlier that she might move to Novara in the Italian League, but that might not be panning out according to sources, and now the new rumor is that Fenerbahçe wants Robinson next season? If I am not mistaken, Naz Aydemir Akyol has already been confirmed as moving to Fenerbahçe next season?

Eczacibasi up 2-1. From the stats, looks like Larson and Boskovic are both playing well, hitting over .500. All other hitters seems to be struggling. Edit: Stats I looked at were only from the first 2 sets.

ICYMI, Simone Lee, Annie Drews and Kelly Hunter with Beylikduzu took 5th place in the end when finishing 8th in the regular season. What a performance!

Bricio was in talks with Scandicci (confirmed) so it would leave the OH role open in Fenerbahçe, causing the Robinson rumors.

Just like that 13-10 Guidetti is mad. Yelling and hitting things. Lol
