I think they're playing a spring match in McCook this year. Kansas State or Colorado State, I forget. ... Also, looks like Stivrins and Hames will be your 2019 captains. No big surprises there  |

Why isn't Lexi Sun playing beach? She's not listed on the pairs for tomorrow's matches?

And awesome news about Stanford planning to travel to Nebraska in the fall to play. I saw a headline on the Omaha World-Herald website that teased this, but the story was behind their paywall. Do you have a link to any other source for this news? |

Tom Shatel Column
One final note about social media, consequences and punishment:
In my conversation with Nebraska volleyball coach John Cook, I asked him about a social media story that made big news in Nebraska: the Stanford locker room whiteboard.
The NCAA’s Twitter account posted a photo last December from the Stanford locker room in Minneapolis after the national championship match. The photo showed a drawing of what appeared to be a gun being pointed at Herbie Husker.
Cook said Stanford coach Kevin Hambly reached out and apologized. Interestingly, the Cardinal are scheduled to come to Lincoln to play the Huskers next fall. And Cook said the Cardinal team wants to perform community service while they’re here.
“We got a letter of apology from the coach,” Cook said. “He reached out to me and said he was going to take care of it. They’re going to do community service here when they come play here next fall. That’s their way of saying 'Hey, we’re not evil people.'”
For the record, Stanford did not post the photo and certainly didn't mean for it to become public. Most teams, in any sport, do not want what happens in their locker room to be open to the public.
But there are fewer private places in today's sports world. This is a reminder that coaches and players need to be aware of, Cook said.
“First of all, there’s people coming in and out of your locker room all the time at the final four,” Cook said. “The (Stanford) coach explains to me that it’s something they’ve done all along. Well, why didn’t somebody shut it down?
“You know, maybe 15 years ago, it was okay because nobody saw it. Now it’s public. Especially at the NCAA tournament, those locker rooms are open. I don’t know what they’re thinking, if that’s how they get motivated ...
“Times have changed.”
Indeed, in more ways than one. The Stanford gesture is appreciated. Any good ideas on what the Stanford ladies should do in Lincoln?

Any good ideas on what the Stanford ladies should do in Lincoln? Most importantly, I am glad Coach Hambly reached out to Cook to apologize for "the grease board incident" as this is the first time I had heard of that. Secondly, I am thrilled the Stanford team has decided to do some sort of community service, not so much because I think they need to atone for their transgressions, but because it shows they're classy young women. Lastly, and I wish Coach Cook would just humbly accept the apology and let it go. A few of his comments sound kinda whiny to me. And before someone else brings it up, he should know as well as anyone that college aged kids often do things they regret and those things aren't always a true reflection of the character of those young people. I was also thinking, the Cardinal would be more than welcome to come over to my place and do some yard work for their community service project. |

I believe that as long as the apology gesture was made; the subject should be closed!
GO HUSKERS
