Is there a list of NCAA Beach matches that will be webcast on opening weekend?
I thought I saw something earlier but can't find it now.

Taylor Fricano, who played indoor at Wisconsin and North Carolina, will make her beach debut as a member of the Missouri State team. volleymob.com/journey-beach-taylor-fricano Taylor Fricano (6-4 Gr.): "I googled all NCAA beach volleyball teams and found Missouri State. I had forgotten they had just started a beach program (...). I didn’t visit Missouri State, I didn’t check out if they had my master’s program, I didn’t meet the team. I just said yes. It was kind of scary, but it was also really cool." "We started a week of two-a-days and it was brutal. Just a bunch of indoor girls trying to play in the sand was a sight to see (...). Now, 2 ½ months later, (...) we would laugh at where we were when we started this journey. Now at practice we don’t always look like a bunch of indoor players trying to make it in the sand." |

2018 Hawaii Preview: Freshmen, Sophomores. Hawaii head coach Jeff Hall: "We’re looking forward to another successful year following our third-place NCAA finish. (...) We return nine out of 11 starters and feel that our experience and depth will help us win at all our flights." volleyballmag.com/big-west-beach-022018Cal Poly head coach Todd Rogers: "We should be significantly improved (...). We are looking to (...) challenge Hawaii for the conference title." LBSU head coach Mike Campbell: "I think we have a lot to prove. (...) Against a lot of the top teams a year ago, we had a lot of 3-2 losses, 15-13 losses in a third set, and hopefully we can harness that experience and turn some of those losses into wins." |

CCSA beach volleyball preview volleyballmag.com/ccsa-022118Florida State head coach Brooke Niles: "This year we are a super athletic team. We have a lot of depth and some incoming freshmen that are really dynamic. We are going to take one weekend at a time focus on our side of the net. If we do these things I see us being contenders for a national championship." South Carolina head coach coach Moritz Moritz: "This is the deepest we’ve ever been and the level of competition we’ve seen at practice is driving our team to new heights. We need that drive (...) and it’s going to take a full team effort to get us back to Gulf Shores." LSU head coach coach Russell Brock: "Clearly this year after coming off a great season there will be less opportunity to do that. That just means we have to be more disciplined, be more prepared, be better trained and if we do all those things we can have even more success." Florida International head coach coach Rita Buck-Crockett: "This year’s team looks extremely focused and very physical. (...) The team is very hungry, and they want don’t want to leave any doubt that they are the ones that should go to nationals this year." |

From what im hearing, FSU will have Paranagua in the ones, Kuhlman (who played ones last year) in the twos, and Putt in the threes. Putt will not lose a match all year in the threes, that's my prediction.. JB, watch her this weekend in the threes if time allows. Kinlaw @ FAU in the ones basically has beaten everyone on that list, curious how she will do without Rice as a partner.

Freire may be having some shots in the knees, some pain, etc, perhaps not quite the season they are predicting.. Already dropped from the ones with Parangua..
