Lisa Rutledge is also back in the mix. I wonder if Tanya and Kelly have enough points to get straight into the main. Tanya talked about taking a break so nice to see her listed

Carico/Ross and Lucena/Brunner skipping NYC in order to get to Yokohama a little earlier.
Some teams/players you'll probably see just for this tournament - a fair number of people are there on a playing vacation: hang out in Manhattan, play a little volleyball, have some fun.

Not that the AVP is super deep nowadays anyway but this tournament is particularly shallow. Interested to see April/Jen play and if the Bomgrens can keep it going, but this is the least excited I have been for an AVP in a while

Speaking of which, I believe it was mentioned earlier that Fopma didn't want to partner with Ross earlier because it was going to be short term. Does this make it a more permanent move?

Fopma and April not hooking up earlier had nothing to do with short-term/long-term - Fopma was ready to pull the trigger regardless. It was an FIVB registration/timing issue with Fopma and her soon to be ex partner, Summer Ross. I wouldn't read too much into April and Jen teaming up. Now, if April calls Kessy, then you know something serious is happening.

I think April Ross should have picked up kropp for the avps. 2012 Jenny, sure. But she's barely played in three years and has young twins at home - which makes it very difficult to get in consistent, serious training.

Now, if April calls Kessy, then you know something serious is happening. Hey geddy, here is your quote which led me to believe that Fopma wanted to play with April long term.... If Kerri Walsh was out indefinitely (which it doesn't appear that way), would April Ross be a good fit with Fopma? Ross was the primary defender with Kessy and Fopma has to be one of the better American blockers. I think April did reach out to Fopma. If Walsh was going to be out for an extended length of time, I think an A. Ross/Fopma partnership could have happened. But it looks like it's just a one-off event, April and Pavlik are buds, Pav is easy to play with etc. It would definitely be interesting if Kessy and Ross team up again.

In trying to be careful in what I wanted to say and how to say it, I ended up wording that post very poorly. My bad, and apologies for not being more clear.

I understand you have info that sometimes cannot be made public. Back to Fopma/Ross, it'll be great to see if Fopma can capitalize on playing with one of the best in the world.
