Are they recruiting both? Strictly going off what I've read about these two in this thread, I'm not sure the OH would get an offer. That's not a knock on her but points to the level of athlete that MN volleyball can recruit. Walking on might be an option but you never know how an athlete will receive that. Unless MN is her "dream" school, if they offer a scholarship to her sister but say we want you as a walkon...would she commit? Interesting scenario to say the least. From what I have heard… the setter is getting a lot of looks from schools other than MN. I do not think the OH will go big ten. She is talented but would fit well into more of a mid major team from what I’ve seen. Depends on what's more important for her - playing time, or staying with her sister?

I think it’s more out of her hands. The matches I’ve seen her play in she’s been pulled quite a bit and struggles in the back row. I don’t see how she would fit the level of talent MN brings in. Her sister yes she’s a stud. I think the injury did a lot to the OH. Time will tell.

Gopher volleyball is in the Swenson’s blood, I’d be shocked if Stella chose somewhere other than Minnesota, unless she doesn’t get an offer… But who knows. Maybe she wants to make her own legacy somewhere else.

Gopher volleyball is in the Swenson’s blood, I’d be shocked if Stella chose somewhere other than Minnesota, unless she doesn’t get an offer… But who knows. Maybe she wants to make her own legacy somewhere else. There have been interviews where she’s said just that. She doesn’t mind being compared to Samantha but she’s not always going to be her ‘little’ sister and she wants to make a name for herself. I’d love to see her become a Gopher but I wouldn’t be surprised if she went somewhere else for that exact reason.

IMO, Gopher fans are getting too worked up over either of the 2024 Swenson twins. Very good players, but SSS was superb - a true difference-maker. I think it’s too early to believe the sisters can reach the same level. Hugh will find a good setter. Right?

I have all the confidence that Hugh will get a great setter, whether that is another Swenson or not.

What's the outlook on the Ptacek girls & Avery Jesewitz from Northern Lights?

I hope Hugh has made the offer to the big middle from his home state. I know some top programs smothered her in Indianapolis, but it would be a shame for the Gophers to let her slip through the state lines. Kaia Caffee? I hope Hugh picks her up too, especially with Stella Swenson commiting recently. From what I’ve seen, they seem to have a very good setter/hitter connection, Swenson is pretty good at finding Caffee (and Schnicles too) anywhere on the court

Schnichles is not quite the same athletic talent - more of a skilled player. Caffee is a must.

Seems like they might be waiting on a few others (e.g. Alec Rothe) to make decisions first...

I hate to lose Caffey while waiting for a player from the middle of Big Ten country.
