For her and her parents sake pray RAM plays her at opp. No one wants to fly around the globe to see their NT daughter hit below .100. What happened to the blackout? I knew that it was too good to be true.

lol This is kinda true, but to be fair, he was mainly criticizing passing to the libero in middle back because it was resulting in giving the setter the option of setting the middles too often.
Yeah that's definitely true. Easier play to execute all around.

"...was only two kills and two blocks away from capturing a quadruple-double against the Titans." are quadruple-doubles even a thing in volleyball? a hitting setter in a 6-2 would probably be the most likely out of all the position. Quadruple doubles are a thing. The only person I've heard of who accomplished the feat was UH alum Ashley Lee when she was playing OH/S for Long Beach (50 assists, 13 digs, 10 kills and 10 block assists). Holly Carlton was one block away from a quadruple double at North Carolina

Holly Carlton was one block away from a quadruple double at North Carolina I didn't realize Holly Carlton was a Tar Heel before transferring to Florida. I didn't even realize she was a transfer, period. My nickname for her is "Ritz Carlton," but so far, it has not caught on despite my marketing efforts.

The only person I've heard of who accomplished the feat was UH alum Ashley Lee when she was playing OH/S for Long Beach (50 assists, 13 digs, 10 kills and 10 block assists). The last player to get a quadruple double was Adrianna Culbert of Colorado State in 2015 (10 kills, 11 blocks, 20 assists, 13 digs). Only her and Lee have accomplished this in the last decade. Had Norene got it, she'd be the first player to get it in a match that didn't go five sets which would have been amazing especially with it going three sets.

Maybe they should give Riley the go for Libero this weekend. They weren’t reluctant to do it in practice so why not give it a go in an actual game? Plus her pass reception is only 2nd to BVS so she’s going to be pivotal against tough serving like CP.

Yeah, Riley is more likely to get a DPOW as a libero than FOW when Hanna and Amber are playing really well.

It didn't happen before because of the lack of depth. They needed Riley to be available as an OH in case something happened. (They used her more and more as a DS last week so it seems it's something that is happening slowly.)
It could (and should) happen if JR comes back and Ross goes back to the bench. Both our opponents last week tried to ruthlessly serve our libero...

I wonder who was penciled in to start the season originally between Ross&Wagoner. Ross was injured prior to season and then pretty much fell prey to RAMs suspiciousness. It did seem like we were seeing/hearing more about Ross in the preseason so who knows? It’s not like Ross has ever been on the floor with BVS, Hellvig, and JR. I wonder if she would have been that much more productive in that early season 6-2 than she has been so far this season, coming in as a reserve because of injury and being asked to produce for 1-2 injured starters off the bat.
I don’t know which 6-2 is going to benefit the team the most at the end of the day, but I think this far our depth pretty much down the lineup, besides the 2 that don’t see the floor, can be serviceable when called on. Westerberg and Akana have both had bright spots, Ross has lead in kills at least once I think, even Kyra is earning more time defensively after their serve. Sibley maybe not as much but has still scored/defended more points than she cost. This team has done a lot of growing.
Not sure how you keep BVS, JR, Iosia, and Hellvig in for 6 rotations but as far as who has been putting this team on their back I think those would be the top 4.
