I can't find play-by-play info for Notre Dame games so I have no idea about the serving order. Sorry.

I'd appreciate help the teams' lineups or serve orders. If I made a mistake, post below or message me. Thanks!

Notre Dame has some nice wins.

Bruins sweep

Notre Dame stopped UCLA's 88 game win streak in basketball years ago.

Digger Phelps vs. John Wooden. Alright!

I know I will have to bump again, but it was page 5.

There are links in my thread to the match threads, so you won't lose them

I don't think Digger or Wooden is playing in this match. Also, UCLA's win streak is in no danger. For the Hell of it, let's talk matchups. Both teams look relatively short. Simo won't have to face Amazons.

And UConn's in WBB.

Does Notre Dame have a chance? They seem streaky.

Notre dame is a good team defensively....if your defense is good and makes them take 4 or 5 swings in a rally, they tend to make more errors. I think this could be a 5 setter.

The team that beat Purdue and Michigan does. The team that lost to Miami and Syracuse is not. It's really the same for UCLA. Who shows up, the team that beat Stanford or the team that lost to Colorado and scored 18-18-20 against Stanford?

Maybe Muffit can show up and give the Irish a pep talk.

She's a little busy scrambling right now, trying to recover from her star sophomore going pro. As far as I know that is pretty new for women's basketball and may be a glimpse into the future of women's volleyball.

It's getting a bit more common- I think Candace Parker was the first; she went to school for 4 years but had a year of eligibility left. There've been a few more since; not sure why, it doesn't seem to me that women's professional basketball is so attractive a profession as to be worth foregoing school.
