First game was Northwestern vs. Bowling Green. Those freshmen middles aren't smart enough to know that they shouldn't be hitting over .400 as freshmen, and they ripped BG apart. Jurivich turned in another solid performance setting and hitting, and Drew Robertson ran a nice offense and came away with some kills (all of which were off the hands of the block). NU smacked them in all 3 and won 3-0.
Second game was Floriday vs. IPFW. I said yesterday that I thought the Gators were bored. I have to take that back. I think it was jet lag, and it was apparent that Jayne and Chatman got plenty of sleep last night. Jayne drilled two poor girls in the head, served up another 5 aces and, of course, passed the entire floor. Chatman was as active as I've ever seen her. I think she went to Benavia University this past summer... she was FLYING in the air. Had her mits on everything and had some outstanding kills. Her transition was flawless today. Gatorzone only had her for 3 blocks on the day. That same person must have measured Douglas as only 6'2". She had 6 blocks when I left...
Florida's serve receive was suspect yesterday, but today, flawless. And Mary did a little something different with the offense (she must have read my post yesterday). She let Lauren set a 5-1 through 11-12 rotations and then they went to the 6-2 with Angie coming into set. It was a great move... Lauren had great rhythm today and you can just see that those middles like her setting better. Marcie Hampton, by the way, is a STUD. I can't believe she's only a freshman. They really aren't missing much physically with her replacing Aury, and I think she'll be better (a very calm, smooth player).
