Has anyone seen Anna Wolf, our 2021 MB recruit, play much? I'm interested in her potential. Based on our roster, she seems to be in-line to take Pittman's place after she graduates. Yeah I wonder. Ellie Huseman will be a junior by that point too. I'm assuming Rubright fills Morgan's spot next year.

I think it will be a battle for who takes Morgan’s spot.

I think it will be a battle for who takes Morgan’s spot. I'm all for battling out for a spot, but it'll irritate me if Rubright doesn't meet expectations. If Huseman just happens to improve a lot to beat her out, fine. But I have a feeling she won't. Rubright was subbed in the other night before Huseman, but that was just for blocking on the right.

I have a hunch that Rubright is being trained for a M1/RS. I think she will be good on the slide and will be able to hit right side as well. I think Huseman will be an M2, she has already shown she can block well. All just a hunch based on the little I've seen of them so far. However, Rubright could play M2 for one year until Pittman graduates. I'm unsure about Anna Wolf starting her first year. Middle blocker, especially the M1, who plays next to the setter, is a big responsibility and the blocking can be a big change from club ball. My guess would be that she would not start her first year unless there is an injury. If she is better than one of the others she could work herself into the rotation by the end of the season but I feel that is highly unlikely.

Yes, thank you, I will fix.

The key for Minnesota will be keeping players happy. That’s not easy for any coach with high-ego players. Mike Hebert: "It's not my job to keep them happy. It's their job to keep me happy."

What year is Booth? 2022?
Looking it up. Yes.

This isn't a complaint--how can one complain about a recruiting class this incredible?--just a question. Is this the first year in which none of Minnesota's recruits were from Minnesota? It seems like it. I wonder where the top prep players in Minnesota are going next year? Anyone know? Just not enough scholarships and the good ones don't walk on. Minnesota players Skylar Gray 5'10" OH from Maple Grove, and Julia Hanson, 5’11” OH from Prior Lake, will be coming the following two years though.

Booth was recruited when she was a Minnesota prep. And Wolf plays for a Minnesota-based club. Or a border club.

Does anyone know what's going on with MN club volleyball? Anna Wolf (previously on the MN Select 18-1's) is now on the 17-1's for MN Select. Kennedi Orr (previously the star on the Northern Lights 18-1's and everyone knows who she is) is now on the 17-1's for Northern Lights. Is Minnesota trying to make an effort to keep kids in their age groups? This seems really weird.

A lot of kids don't play 18s their senior year, weakening the 18U team.

The 18s club season ends in the Spring so that seniors aren’t having nationals while they’re graduating and preparing for college. The 17s season goes into the summer with nationals in June. So possibly they decided to have these girls playing the longer season for club.

Didn't Pittman redshirt her freshman year? Yes but they also had Molly Lohman, both Tapp sisters, Taylor Morgan, and Maddie Beal in front of her at MH that season. My point was Pittman had time to adapt to the college game playing against some of the best that season everyday in the gym. She didn't just show up a month before season and start of like Samedy and SSS.
