What if Hill and Larson were the top OH's in camp and you wanted them fresh for 2 hardest matches within 18 hours? Is sitting them versus a weak opponent "13u"? Hill hasn't played with the national team since... last falls World Championships? I didn't think it was a good move to not give her that first match to give her her some real competition before such a high-leverage match. I'll trust the coach in the gym with her. Guessing she was also a bit tired/worn out from a long pro season. Seemed like she played awesome despite no "real competition".

Wasn’t she pulled midway through the Bulgaria match and didn’t play against Argentina? Perhaps she could’ve used the Kazakhstan match to get into a groove after having a longer break than the rest of the team; but I’m not too worried, I don’t think this short-lived performance is too much to read into. But to say she played ‘awesome’ is not really typical of what you think of someone who was pulled mid-match and didn’t see the court again.

Kinda AWESOME in my book. It appeared to me that she gassed and ran out of energy at end of 3rd set after carrying a heavy load. Or maybe she tweaked something. But her play was AWESOME while she was in.

I think the Libero should at least sweat.

My bad. I misused "there." The next thing you know, I'll be claiming that this usage is permitted in the wonderful world of social media. BTW, yeah, it does matter who starts. Otherwise, 90% of the discussions here would mean even less than they do.
