You have a strange way to welcome a new player. Ugh and 😖 back at you. The "ugh" and   were sure not in reference to Olivia herself. I'm thrilled for her to be a Hawkeye! Very talented player! Goodness. They were in reference to the program's communications group appearing to make the unfortunate error of incorrectly listing the current high school she attends and played volleyball for in their announcement about her...that, to me, is a "strange way to welcome a new player." OK. It appeared to me that your negatives were in response to the high school she transferred to, as they directly followed. |

Glad that has been clarified and also glad they appear to have now corrected it. |

Would be nice to get this level of recruit but it's probably not realistic at this point. She'll have her pick of schools.

Great to see updated roster. Excited for the spring and next fall, especially to see what the new talent can bring to the team and court...including Davis (had to be so hard for her to sit out her first year in IC). They have Lombardi listed on here as attending Valley HS instead of DM Christian, just like they did on the Twitter announcement. Hope that get that corrected here soon, too...and it lists her as being 6' 2" on her profile page. I'm sure she would love if that were the case! And must admit, sure is tough to not see Amiya Jones' name listed here.  That will be such a huge hole to fill in so many ways. Will be interesting to see what sort of spring schedule they put together this year. Will be an important few months together for this team. |

Onabanjo listed as a middle--intriguing. She certainly changed the course of the Michigan match with her play in the middle.

Onabanjo listed as a middle--intriguing Ah, good catch! Looks like Toyosi may be back to her original position with the Hawks. She did make a big difference in the middle those last couple of matches last fall for sure. Sooooo...if she moves to the middle, will be intriguing to see who we utilize on the right. Looks like Black is likely a given there, as she had some good matches in that role. But especially if we run a 6-2 again, who else? I believe Deery has hit on right in club a bit. |

Didn't see that the first time I looked at the updated roster. Definitely will be a beneficial change for the Hawks. Very interested to see who the two middles will be with Onabanjo being changed and Davis coming back from injury. |

Interested to see where they go with this hire. Someone fairly new into the coaching profession or experienced at non power 5?? From the salary range, I would guess it would attract newer candidates. Also noteworthy that it mentions additional responsibilities after July 1st. |
