Looks like Megan Courtney and Annie Drews are on the week one roster based on Instagram

Would be really cool to see this Week 1:
S: Hancock, Poulter OH: Foecke, Kingdon, Lee, Wilhite MB: Ogbogu, Rettke, Washington, H. Tapp Opp: Cuttino, Drews L: Lake, Courtney
I’d be fine with this group throughout the prelims and sub in Carlini, Lowe, Bartsch, Robinson and maybe Lloyd. Rest the others until the finals.
This won’t happen but I can dream can’t I.......?

I heard from an inside the gym source that carlini / Hancock are most likely to be the 2 at the end. Who knows if that will hold true but that’s what I was told.

^^ Most likely, but if they were outperformed then definitely they will be on the chopping block.

So are aloe and Courtney basically gonna be on every weeks roster ? Theyre the only 2 liberos in the gym right now. Maybe if they play bad Kelsey Robinson can save the day but I’ve also accepted the Karch is a sociopath

At least, on the surface, it looks like there’s more new blood this year than last.

Maybe this has been discussed but if you were to ask the question, "which two collegiate players would make the vnl final roster?" How many had Thompson and Rettke as their final answer?

Lake is also a collegiate player. I'd say a lot of people would have her and Rettke. Not Thompson because she isn't at a P5 school. I know Lake isn't either, but BYU is consistently ranked highly.

lake has a year left? Wow-nice. And I'm pretty sure a list of what collegiate player would make the NT would start and end with Plummer.

I agree with vbsam16 , I've had a hard time with Thompson because she truly has never gone against real big competition in her collegiate career. Yes, she's been invited by USA, but it'll be a test for her in the prelim weeks, even then, I doubt she'll make it. Given her record of being battle tested vs Rettke and Lake. Also, Thompson has to be fourth on the totem pole in the OPP selection for VNL.

I feel like that's why Courtney is there. She might not be a super elite libero at this point, but she's also a known commodity and extremely unlikely to have a major meltdown on the scale that J-Wo did last year. You might start with Lake to see how she does, but with Thompson, she's at least good enough for the US to beat most teams.
