WISC Franklin 2.40 (48) (that's iconic) Schumacher 2.33 (21) Orzol 2.05 (10) Damrow 1.80 (5) 2.26 as a team TEX Wenaas 2.26 (31) Skinner 2.19 (16) Akana 2.58 (12) Halter 2.64 (11) 2.36 as a team Imagine what a blowout this would have been if Texas wasn't committed to serving Franklin. That was the strategy in the FF so I don't think JE saw a need to change.

Imagine what a blowout this would have been if Texas wasn't committed to serving Franklin. Just from watching on VM, both sides serving strategies were.... something. I wish we would hear more from coaches about what they're thinking/trying to do. Wasn't the strategy to make Franklin work as much as possible, tire her out physically and mentally? Based upon the last 2 sets, I'd say it worked, she looked both tired and upset at her teammates

Wisconsin passed that well and still couldn’t get anything out of anyone but Sarah ? Neither Smrek or Booth could kill a ball, that didnt help (neither did general misconnects) Wisconsin passed 2.48 (!!) in rotations 5/6 (the one where trinity was the only front row pin) and they hit .082. Booth and Trinity both hit negative. I do not understand why trinity is OH1. If Sheff wants orzol at OH1, even that feels like too much pressure to produce for a senior coming off injury and a year not hitting. Yes, you can attack with Franklin out of the back row, but if the other team is hitting her with serves at every opportunity…

With Orzol out, it makes some sense But on an offensive level, it’s a bit mess

Based upon the last 2 sets, I'd say it worked, she looked both tired and upset at her teammates The strategy HAD to be overloading Franklin. She passed well, but with us targeting her she had to pass every other ball WHILE taking 50,000 swings or whatever the number was

I wish we would hear more from coaches about what they're thinking/trying to do. Was it the strategy or the execution? Swindle to Carlson and Barnes to Binney looked like a huge drop off in serving pace.

I’ve been thinking that for both matches. Her defense holds up really well too from what I can see. And she has an energetic presence in the back court that might provide the continuity they need. I know it’s hard for liberos to transition to being a DS and not being in control of the back row but she seems like someone who would provide stability. I dunno. I really like her game, and the 2 libero thing doesn’t seem to be working.

Glad to see her more in a rhythm now that she is going 6 rotations. And I was pretty impressed with her defense as well. Akana was great yesterday. I remember a couple serves that caught her pretty high that she passed real well so this number doesn’t surprise me. We are lucky to have her playing right back. There were a couple times she stepped in on second ball when Carlson/Swindle could have gotten there but she out up a better ball to the outside😂 Halter is coming for an AA award this year. What a start against tough competition in both serve receive and defense. Now if we can just get that second ball consistent lol

1. Why does Wisconsin have two players in libero jerseys? 2. They really should swap Emma out of the libero jersey to giver her a rest
Of course, we explained the libero jersey rule change to her. And then we gave her crap for point (2).
Then I thought why we didn't dress a second player in the libero jersey. You would think, "Oh you want the second best defender with the black jersey". Then you would think, "Well, duh that would be Akana". But then if you did that and both Halter and Akana were both wearing the black jersey they couldn't be in the back together. And then if you then give that second jersey to......Rella Binney? You wouldn't be inserting her in that often would ya? It would save you a "sub" count I suppose right? Rella comes in to serve for Ayden and that would save on the substitution count?
