Who would people say are the top three serving teams last year ?? Stanford Washington Nebraska Maybe Wisconsin. I think they had a decent amount of aces from what I remember.

Wisconsin were significantly better than the other 3. Wisconsin's combined opponents had a 42% good pass percentage in matches against the Badgers. Washington and Stanford's opponents were in the ~46% range, Nebraska was worse, as 48.4%. Michigan were at 43.9%.

I would imagine very few Nebraska fans thought last season was a strong serving year. If I remember, it was statistically one of their worst in a while

Ole Miss 117 117 1.00 That's a fairly significant difference between 1st and 2nd place. Do you have the service errors too?

Deberg and Omazic both had great seasons behind the service line for Mizzou while Hans was Tamu’s big threat. I think that data is pulled right from the SEC athletics page.

Don't have SE, or other pertinent stats like the opponent pass%, but that basic table was easy to find.
My take for many years is get 2.0 aces per set and keep your errors at about 1.1 or below and you're going to go pretty far. So Mizzou was pretty good, but not a contender for one of the best serving teams nationally.
Someone check the four semifinalists and see what they had...

Aces is only one way to look at serving. add in pass score and FBSO percentage along with service errors

Interested in seeing how A&M will replace Hans. She was their offense. They have Rush and Davis, and added Christon and Ennis. Ennis is the only one of them who’ve played backrow at the college level, so she might be in the lead for 6 rotation outside. Will really she how well Bird is as coach this year because other than Conner, this team is full of question marks.

Also I think her ability to pass 6 rotations alongside Curry is very helpful for them and can help out younger players. This will create less of a load for M. Skinner. Curry, Tharp, Stumler has to be one of the best back row trios I think it was the best in the country last season statistically. Really makes you wonder with that passing, one or if not the best setter in the country, and with the weapons they had what went wrong. What I’ve always asked about Kentucky. Seems like when the lights get bright, they don’t show up. I think they lacked leadership a bit. Also I noticed, that in Edmond’s last game of the season (both her junior and senior year), she got out performed by the opponents best player. Her junior year she didn’t play well and they got swept by Nebraska. But in 2019 when they played Washington, Bajema out played her. And no, it doesn’t all fall on her, but big time players sometimes have to carry their team to a win, and Edmond didn’t do that. In each of Kentucky’s NCAA tournament losses during the Edmond era, the team dropped the first two sets. They either got swept (2016, 2018) or stole the third set and lost in 4 (2017,2019).

I think (hope) this is the year LSU breaks out. LSU may finally have some consistent setting with Rose. With Flickinger coming in, LSU’s passing gets better. Interesting to see how well she performs in the front row. I remember watching a video of her and she was saying that the reason she chose LSU was because Flory would allow her to play 6 rotations instead of becoming a DS. We’ll see how well she does with that. Hill performed well in her freshman year and will only get better. With her and Flickinger possibly both playing 6 rotations, that gives LSU another offensive option. Hopefully Foreman can breakout this year and really perform well in her third year. And Canculli will be great as always. I think a huge factor for LSU is Anwusi. If she can become a more polished player LSU might have something cooking. A wall of her and Bannister would be tough for any hitter. But if not, Morris performed well when she was given opportunities. LSU needs to serve better this year. Last year, this was a young team, starting 3 freshmen. I think LSU really lacked leadership last year, just cause their seniors didn’t perform well last year. Now that Bannister and Canculli are entering their last year, I think LSU has a good mixture of youth and veterans that might make them a pretty good team.

I noticed this too. They have the pieces but just can’t seem to execute.

It did seems those were her worst matches of the season. She definitely didn't disappear against Florida. I guess I've always looked at it as when Edmond was down, so was the team. They didn't have another player able to fill her shoes when she's off.
