Serbia won’t be a factor...especially with Mirkovic setting. I don’t know how how I feel about Terzic not being there. He needs to retire if he has little interest in developing talent.

Our Olympic roster is probably gonna be: L: Courtney OH: Larson, Robinson, Hill, MBH MB: Foluke, Chiaka, Haleigh OPP: Drews, Thompson S: Carlini, Poulter What do y’all think? Actually this Marquette libero is turning heads... what do y’all think about her? I'd bet the house that Tori Dixon will be there even if Foluke is back and ready. I feel like only one of Chiaka/Washington is gonna make the cut. Who is this Marquette Libero you speak of? when Marquette best Wisconsin last night it was attributed to the Marquette libero... apparently she’s a difference maker

It is not official yet, but there`s many rumors saying he`s leaving the Serbian NT after Tokyo. So it is actually a good thing that he`s giving the opportunity for other coaches to gain experience. Lang Ping has done the same. Mostly important, he said this tournament is worthless and that`s why he does not even care to be there.

I just heard back from a representative at Flo Sports. I asked why the World Cup was not on the schedule of events being covered. As usual her response was garbage. She says the schedule is subject to change and to stay tuned. I’m about go straight to their headquarters and demand to speak to their CEO or whomever is in charge. I live in Austin so it’s just around the corner. For those of us who bought a yearly subscription they need to provide a schedule upfront so we can see what content we are purchasing. I also got automatically billed for a second year and didn’t know that that was how it worked. How do the rest of you watch your volleyball? Do I need to get a VPN and just subscribe to volleyball tv? Is that the solution? World cup games are now listed on Flo.

According to recent USAVWNT ig stories, I think our roster would be: S: Carlini, Poulter OPP: Drews, Lowe OH: Bartsch-Hackley, Hill, Larson, Robinson MB: Dixon, Ogbogu, Tapp, Washington L: Courtney, JWO Yep. This is officially the roster.

Good roster! Hate the time difference. Preparation for next summer, I guess!
Have to wonder if Hancock is going to be a factor going forward. Seems like Carlini/Poulter are set as #1 and #2 setters.
Thompson for Lowe next summer.
OHs are as expected. I expect no changes to occur until after Tokyo, then there will probably be big changes with this position group.
Excited that Ogbogu is on the roster. Love the rise of Hannah Tapp, and probably means Rachael Adams' days with the NT are numbered. Will be a tough decision to leave off one of the MBs next summer.
Go JWO! Or someone! Anyone! Just need better play out of the Libero position.

I would’ve left JWO and brought Mikaela I don't mind it...as long as she plays. Kiraly might think she has a chance to take that spot from Megan Courtney, or she is just taking the place of Mary Lake and other Liberos who are all back in college.

I would’ve left JWO and brought Mikaela Teams are required to have 2 liberos. I know we messed around with that rule during relatively meaningless VNL matches, but that’s highly abnormal.

I'm a fan of Poulter, but I think she lacks experience. I believe Hancock is still in play to make the Tokyo roster.
My guess is that Karch wants to give Poulter as much experience as possible (in case of injury), considering Lloyd's retirement.

This most likely means Poulter and Foecke will be with their clubs sooner? At least there's a positive for that, since Foecke wouldn't get any playing time, and Poulter wouldn't get a lot.
