Our tip defense SUCKS!!!!! I wouldn't say it sucks. It's not great at this point but still way better than 2008-2010 when it truly was abysmal. Teams like Italy and Brazil would score on virtually every tip attempt, which for those two teams is a lot.

Davis witha terrible serve reception, but good bump set by Logan and put away by Destinee. 14-10. Logan serving in our "best rotation". Turkey kills out of pipe

bad call by the refs, the ball did not hit the antenna....if we were playing the Brazillians Shelia would by crying about it to the refs for at least 5 minutes

Who passed that last serve heading into the timeout?

Turkey can't get over our block, but after 4 tries they're bound to get a tool. Mathematical probabilities and stuff.

Overpass kill to give us a 16-12 leave heading into the second TTO. Harmotto, I believe.

Turkey kills out of pipe Oh it's so true....her serve is not only effective BUT Berg is backrow which puts up better defense, we have 3 front row hitters to distribute the ball and those 3 hitters are Larson on the left (who is better at offense right now than Tom), Akinradewo in the middle, and hooker on the right. big block, great backcourt D, and our best 3 front row options.

I need some Megan Hodge in my life. If Larson continues to struggle offensively, your wish may come true.

We've gotten lucky on some missed officiating though. Too bad for a match this close.

In a question for those who follow international volleyball, are our left sides not great terminators at this level, or is it more that it is just really, really hard for lefts to score against this type of competition? I know that great all around skills are essential here, but it seems as if Hooker is really the offense a lot of the time.
