Taylr McNeil to Iowa from S.C. Wow. Wow, indeed. And Allie Monserrez from to Florida from SC. Things don't seem to be looking good for Swanson in Columbia. But it's very strange that Taylr's younger sister just committed to the Gamecocks this year. Maybe Taylr just wanted to be closer to home, and having her sisters nearby wasn't enough? Taylr's younger sister Maddie decommitted from South Carolina and signed with Northern Iowa. |

Then that would explain some things for sure.

And the Monserrez who transferred from SC to FL is a 5'9" setter, but I seriously doubt she can threaten D'Agostino's playing time. |

But it seems she went to NI which would make more sense as Florida already had two setters. The real question is what is going on at South Carolina? |

The real question is what is going on at South Carolina? There are three different players being mentioned here. Taylr McNeil: from South Carolina to Iowa Maddie McNeil: from South Carolina to Northern Iowa Allie Monserrez: from South Carolina to Florida I think we may have confused Maddie and Allie at some point. Your question certainly remains valid. |

She's a really competitive player and that isn't afraid to be pushed. Works well with others and she's very encouraging as well as positive. Knows that team chemistry is a huge factor in success. Mom is a coach and played the game. Jessica has been playing since she was four years old.

Taylr McNeil: from South Carolina to Iowa Maddie McNeil: from South Carolina to Northern Iowa Allie Monserrez: from South Carolina to Florida + Kellie McNeil: decided not to compete in her senior season at South Carolina. I think that merits another "wow." Clearly, the connection between Swanson and the McNeil family has undergone some kind of change. Kellie followed him to SC, and now this. As I look at SC's roster, they now have only one setter - an incoming freshman - 5'9" kid from Austin Juniors. |
