Lewis may be the most at risk. Gonzalez is probably one of the better passers for OH on the team (not knowing much about the freshman).
I"m really excited for Lewis' senior year. They won't be expecting the opp to pass at all, so that won't be at issue. The passing may come into play for the L2 battle. Gonzales for sure has the experience and big moments edge, but the young ones are really talented!
Yeah, I didn’t word that very well. My point was more that if Gonzales is the best passing OH, she will likely be starting with Colyer. Since the oppo won’t pass, it could be a spot where a freshman could break through. Sounds like the freshmen could challenge for OH2 though, which is great! Nice to have that level of competition in the gym. Hope at least a couple of pins redshirt though!
Becca is looking quite strong. Going to be hard keeping her off of the court.
You mean this upcoming year? Meh, I doubt she's going to see much court time.
Agreed. Definitely a heavy arm but I don't think her all around game beats out any of the veterans this season. She's also going to have a very hard time next season beating out a few of the left side pins that that came in with this Freshmen class. It will be interesting to see what Ulmer does with redshirts this season and how many in this Freshman group burn a year of eligibility not seeing the court much.

Why she looked pretty great at both OH and Opp ? If somebody is struggling to terminate she can inserted in to play in the front.
mmmm perhaps. Though, if you are judging strictly by the clips posted above with the U19 team, lets put that in context, those were her ONLY kills, the rest of her swings were either errors or didn't go down for kills, and even on those kills, she was hitting into a large window for all of those shots. I'm pretty sure everyone currently on the Oregon squad could score in the same circumstance.

True, I can just see Gonzales struggling to terminate a lot and wouldn’t be shocked if she was benched in the front for one of the freshman’s.
Exhibition vs. PSU coming up this Saturday. Anyone make it to the scrimmage this weekend, and have any observations?
I think we'll likely see the following to start the season, though in the exhibition I expect to see a lot of players playing:
OH1- Colyer (DS'd if needed, but likely she will stay in more than she did last season unless passing breaks down) OH2- Gonzales MB- Bacon, McGhee Opp- Lewis (DS-McClellan) S- Pukis L- Murphy

I'd be curious to see if Becca Kelley gets to Eugene in time to get some reps in and possibly in-game reps. Or if they give her a bit of a break to rest from the u19 wc, and come in rested and refreshed in a couple of weeks.

Good question. I'm thinking no, but if so, probably not much. I would expect to see Acevedo, Patterson, Gregoire, and Gloever, getting some playing time in the exhibition.
