If Klineman learns to pass she will be one of the best outsides in the world. Her hitting is the best I've seen out of the NCAA game sans Hooker.

I've only seen a few games of her with her pro team, but I would say they her passing is still in the same class as barboza and hodge. If she continues to play at this level (and improving), this summer should be very interested for Team USA.

If she continues to play at this level (and improving), this summer should be very interested for Team USA. Klineman isn't anywhere near Barboza in terms of passing and defense, IMO. Both Hodge and Barboza have improved their passing since leaving the college game. Barboza has made more strides in my opinion as well as big improvements to her defensive game. Her biggest weakness is herself. She gets timid and makes so many mental errors. Klineman isn't anywhere near Barboza in terms of passing and defense. |

It would be cool if their were some video streams of the team Murphy and Jaeckel will be playing on. I want to watch them get better at the next level. I second this. Anyone have links for that league? |

Watched an Azerrail Baku match today and I noticed how great Heather Bown looks. More fit than I've seen her in past seasons, good for her!

Can I just say, Fener's match v. Mulhouse... that is the absolute worst I've ever seen Logan Tom pass. Yikes. All else considered she had a good match, but her passing was awful, surprisingly enough.

Saw this match. Logan Tom handled 23 of the team's 36 passes. She was 74% positive, 43% excellent and had 1 error in 23 attempts. I do think she could/should be around 50% excellent... |

Definitely has gotten into shape, good for her. A little competition from Dani in the gym may have pushed her to prepare even more. Getting into even better shape will help her for sure! |

I just feel like rambling about all the teams that I've been watching this season.
CEV CL
A.
RC - this team is pretty damn good, has an American ever played on that team?
MCVC - does anyone know why Berg didn't play in VC's last match? Sarah Pavan is as good as I would expect her to be 4-5 years out of college, I forgot how huge she is.
B.
IFB-this club must have some SERIOUS cash, all those amazing players on the floor AND one on the bench! the practice gym must be a sight to see.
RBK-every time I watch this team I feel like I'm watching a USC match. Moonballs to the leftside and pipes that stay in the air for 30secs bore me. Luckily Mammadova is afreakingmazing so I continue to watch them.
C.
KAZ-i believe that this is the best team from Russia this season with MOS right behind them.
SOP-the loss of that OH is going to hurt them, lets see if megan can catch fire and pick up the slack on offense and reception. i like the way glass has played this season, she's doing everything they need her to do and kozuch has gotten better as the season has progressed.
D.
ABK-another team I really enjoy watching. if they can get hot and pull it all together at the right time I think they could take the whole thing.
BER-for whatever reason I have always rooted against this team. i was so excited when they were playing like crap at the beginning of the season but they have turned it around, lets see what direction they go next.
E.
PES-Klinemann is having a good season but i cant say the same for the setter. there are times when i catch myself saying, 'she's TERRIBLE!'
MOS-the addition of Grun has certainly helped this already very solid team. Maybe I didn't notice in the past but Grun makes so many little plays for them where before her contribution was mostly offense.
SUPERLIGA
OSA-I'm glad Destinee finally cracked the lineup! I was wondering who was going to sit between Ju Costa and Tandara and I'm a little bummed that it is Ju Costa. Also, it seems Fabiola lost her spot? This team is stacked and I mean STACKED. if they dont win in the end I will be very surprised.
UNI-not to sound like a d!ck but Fernanda Venturini should've stayed retired, i dont think she brings enough to that team. They already have small middles and I dont think Venturini pushes the tempo enough.
SES-this team is really fun to watch. dani linz is playing great and soninha and elisangela POUND balls. sassa is also having a very good season.
VFU-no stacy, another dog-fight at the setter position, and a middle that plays (and contributes) all the way around.
MIN-this team could really ruin for someone when the playoffs roll around. they have a great setter and ramirez and that other little OH get hot quickly.
thats all i got!

Former Oregon and Florida State University player Mira Djuric will play in Germany for Rote Raben Vilsbiburg, currently #1 ranked in German 1st division. She started the season in a Ukrainian club but left in December. Vilsbiburg got her as backup and currently as replacement for Cuban Opposite Liana Mesa who suffered a muscle injury last week.
