Texas won the 1st 4 sets and lost the 5th, 15-13
some thoughts/observations:
20 service errors as a team. not great. logan broke out a jump serve tonight. took a bit to get that going asjia serves really really well and she has good reactions in the back row. looking forward to seeing her play ashley set all of set 1 and a good chunk of set 2. jhenna finished set 2 and all of set 3. riley was in for sets 4 and 5 all of the setters need work, especially working with both asjia and orie on the slides riley played well in the 4th. glad to see that they ran micaya on a slide attack. not sure i've ever seen that before. autumn took over the libero position early in the 4th
it was 13-13 in the 5th and asjia was about to serve. the ball crew guy lost control of the other volleyball and it got in asjia's way. after he grabbed the ball, she promptly served into the net. ball crew cost Texas the 5th

This was big time...brought out the cheerleaders. And why is the R1 in the student section? Gives the appearance of bias.

Now that people have had a chance to see the replays (sorta - you can't see most of the serves), my random thoughts:
1. Morgan Johnson practiced and warmed up with the squad and then......didn't play. This isn't about Morgan, but why(?) most times the seniors who've used up their regular eligibility don't play in the Spring scrimmages? Is it to give the other players more play time? I remember seeing Molly McCage (one of my favs) warming up during the Spring game and then....disappearing (I mean literally leaving the court) once the scrimmages started. Are they there as a favor to the coaches? Dunno. Thoughts?
2. I can see why Asjia O'Neil was so highly rated. I kept thinking, "Ooooo, this is one I'm going to say has GREAT POTENTIAL" But, I didn't see any outstanding blocks from her. But I can say that she seemed very cognizant of what was going on. I mean that during a few jousting at the net episodes where the ball was tangled up in player's hands, she kept focus on what needed be done, which was get it over the net(!) no matter who touched it last. The blocking not there, yet.
3. Seemed that Gabriel's connection with the middles has regressed a bit. Even my daughter, a big non-Shook fan had to admit that Shook was looking better than Gabriel.
4. Serving, 50-50 as usual. No improvement.
5. A surprise seeing Fisbeck being given such long setting play time. Even in past scrimmages she wasn't given much time. Maybe a message being sent to both Gabriel and Shook?
6. Weird seeing Rounsaville in a libero jersey
7. Blocking in general was a bit underwhelming. But, less of Brionne crashing into the net attempting to block and kill.
8. My daughter and I were grumbling that for a team that had no newcomers on the team, as of yet, they seemed out of sync....as if some of them had never played with each other before.
9. But then, Asjia I guess is a newcomer on the court.
10. R1 is always on the student side of the court.
11. It's sad that a free scrimmage, with free parking, draws fewer people each year it seems
12. So many times the outsides should have killed the ball they tipped - sigh
13. But that Shook kill in the second set - wheeeeeeeee
Anyway, sorry I couldn't show the whole court. I had to balance the fact that I didn't want to hold a phone in my lap or in the air for 90 minutes and have shaky video vs. not wanting my phone to fall over the ledge.
