Alright, I defer as to her chances. But I'm still sure I guessed her motivation correctly.

Carlini's case cannot be explained or justified, but it's very easy to see why Ogbogu decided to stay with Conegliano: for the chance to be a part of a historic team which can win all trophies it plays this year. She obviously thinks it worth not playing as a starter (and besides, stakes for her are not quite so high, because there was practically no chance of her being a starting MB in Tokyo, regardless of anything). This post is hysterical!!! Ogobgu is our top MB in the USA gym!! Hilarious

Carlini never fails to rile up people on here it seems.

Ogbogu was one of the top, if not the top, middle for the national team all last summer. Why would you think there was no chance of her starting in Tokyo? As of today, I would pick her to start with Foluke. Im confused on Foluke right now. Is she still playing or is she gonna start training for 2020 or is she out? Also do you think Carlini will make the cut for 2020? I think so but shell just have to get back into the US system of play. periodt!

As of today, I would pick her to start with Foluke. Im confused on Foluke right now. Is she still playing or is she gonna start training for 2020 or is she out? Also do you think Carlini will make the cut for 2020? I think so but shell just have to get back into the US system of play. periodt! My understanding is that Foluke is training in Anaheim right now. She is not playing in any league at the moment. But, she is not retired and seems to be intending to put herself into a position to be in Tokyo. I think she was even in the gym working out late into her pregnancy as well. But, I just have this impression because of social media. The setter position is an interesting one, and will be really intriguing competition. I haven't watched much (any?) of the pro leagues, but I read about them here. There was a time last summer where it was pretty clear Carlini had taken the starting job and would likely not relinquish it. Just as soon as that had become clear, suddenly Poulter was starting ahead of Carlini in one of the tournaments. The reviews of Hancock's play in Italy have been glowing, and it sounds like Carlini's marriage with Dinamo Moscow has been toxic. Based upon what we saw last summer at the setting position, I would say Carlini is still a good bet for Tokyo. But, not willing to put any money on that bet.

Since we are talking about setters, I really do believe that Hancock is the most consistent setter we have right now. I also think she consistently makes the best choices. Now, if only Karch would let her do her jump serve!

It looks like Conegliano got taken to the woodshed for their unfortunately chosen photo after their win at Stuttgart. That's the most somber I've ever seen any of these girls look. Just another cautionary tale on the use of social media in this particular day in age.

They all basically did a team photo of them covering their mouths as if they were all sick with the virus.

www.cev.eu/News.aspx?NewsID=30512&ID=5CEV announces re-scheduling of matches postponed due to coronavirus News from the CEV Luxembourg, March 6, 2020. The CEV has been liaising intensively with all relevant parties, reviewing the decisions made by the national authorities of a number of countries and unifying them according to its Regulatory Framework. As a result, with the health and well-being of athletes, officials and fans as its primary concern, the CEV can confirm the re-scheduling of the matches postponed earlier this month due the escalation of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in Europe. Through the much-appreciated help offered by the club of OK Nova KBM Branik MARIBOR and the Volleyball Federation of Slovenia, a number of matches will be taking place at Sportna Dvorana Ljudski Vrt in Maribor, Slovenia, according to the following programme: • March 13: Match No. 5-003 TRENTINO Itas (ITA) vs. JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel (POL) • March 14: Match No. 5-004 JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel (POL) vs. TRENTINO Itas (ITA) • March 18: Match No. 5-301 Fenerbahce Opet ISTANBUL (TUR) vs. Igor Gorgonzola NOVARA (ITA) • March 18: Match No. 5-305 Savino Del Bene SCANDICCI (ITA) vs. Eczacibasi VitrA ISTANBUL (TUR) • March 19: Match No. 5-302 Igor Gorgonzola NOVARA (ITA) vs. Fenerbahce Opet ISTANBUL (TUR) • March 19: Match No. 5-306 Eczacibasi VitrA ISTANBUL (TUR) vs. Savino Del Bene SCANDICCI (ITA) Moreover, all involved parties have agreed to cancel the match 5-308 A. Carraro Imoco CONEGLIANO (ITA) vs Allianz MTV STUTTGART (GER). As winners of the match 5-307 played earlier this week in Germany (3-0), the team of A. Carraro Imoco CONEGLIANO has qualified to the semi-finals of the CEV Champions League Volley 2020. All other Champions League matches will go ahead as planned – with those due to take place in Perugia and Civitanova both closed to the public in order to comply with the measures adopted by Italian authorities for the holding of public events. The CEV Cup 2020 – Women quarterfinal fixture 4-408 between Unet e-work BUSTO ARSIZIO (ITA) and Dinamo KAZAN (RUS) scheduled for earlier this week will be taking place in Busto Arsizio on March 11 behind closed doors. As for the CEV Cup quarterfinal fixture 4-108 between Leo Shoes MODENA and GFC AJACCIO initially due to take place on March 4, the two parties have agreed to cancel the match 4-108 and to regard the result of the match 4-107 played in Ajaccio on February 26 as the one determining the team progressing to the semi-final stage of the competition. As a result, by virtue of their 3-0 victory in Ajaccio, the team of Leo Shoes MODENA have qualified to the semis of the CEV Volleyball Cup 2020 – Men. The CEV acknowledge that the Volleyball family is dealing with difficult times, but invites all parties to stick together as members of one team in order to manage this situation by displaying a sense of cooperation and solidarity.
