You're really under estimating how important White is to this team I’m not undervaluing white at all. I just think Hampton will be fine back there next year. PSU passes in a two person receive exclusively? maybe some rotations with three? White is the best passer. You're not replacing that with Hampton lol.

Psu is a year away I think if they can get another pin in offseason. I think losing White is going to be a huge loss for this team plus a senior DS. They’re already having to use a two person serve receive. Do they have a White like Libero coming in?

People didn’t think they would do much this year and look where they are at after 17-3 conference record. Don’t underestimate rose. Just saying let’s see where all teams are after offseason

Losing White is huge and Holcomb has been a godsend back there this year. 3 very good backrow players and Penn State loses 2 of them, including the best of the 3 who is a 4 year starter at the libero position. That's going to be hard to replace. Did Parker pass at all last year? I think the key tonight is Gorrell and Parker playing well. The middles are a given but if those two can play smart I think Penn State has a chance. Stanford's passing looked suspect at times last night so be aggressive! Parker also might not wanna error 20 times from the service line, that would be helpful lol

Next year is a long way off and much can happen. PSU's back court will be just fine as in most every season.

You can’t lollipop serve at this stage and expect to win. Makes me think of Hancock. She took a lot of high risk in her service game but her success rate was much higher. She could go on some ridiculous runs from service line. Her and bricio have had to be my two favorites to watch serve

I’m just looking forward to a White vs Hentz match. Hentz needs to step up her floor sweeping skills. White wins in that category by a landslide.

I’m just looking forward to a White vs Hentz match. You'll be watching a lot of floor wiping. So nice when the 2nd match started and it wasn't wipe after wipe.

Excited for this match!
I’m sure Stanford’s seniors are pumped up as this is their last home match in their collegiate careers.
Penn State is always a tough opponent and I think they will come out firing just like they did last season. However, PSU 2018 is a much better team than PSU 2019.

Unless the little outside from Oregon transfers to Penn State to play Libero I don’t see how everyone thinks they will be better next year. This year their biggest hole is an elite outside but next year their hole will be a elite Libero. Unfortunately, I don’t see them being better next year. With an AA Libero they still pass a lot of balls at the 3 meter line. Hopefully they can pull some kind of miracle tonight but I would not bet on it. Stanford in 4
