Aloha means goodbye. Enjoy your time off! Nothing like a little levity to ease all the anxiety. Lol. |

Suburb of Omaha, to the southeast by the river. Destiny played her first two years for Bellevue West but is actually transferring to Omaha Westside. You think she’ll be an impact player? She’s fun to watch. Definitely the 6’0 high flyer type. A bunch of the players on her new high school team also play for her club team, so the upcoming season should be wild. |

A past tweet, but shows she's good enough to get recognition from USA Volleyball.

Nebraska got their first choice at OH in Harper Murray. Plenty of P5 offers for Destiny, though. She’s always been in the discussion for the best 2023 here in Nebraska. |

Robyn seems to not let distant bother her. Our past HC concentrated mostly tried to find prospects in CA and on the west coast. Robyn is going all over the place. Texas, Louisiana, Ohio, Georgia and now Nebraska along with the international pipeline.
What will be unusual is after Sky and Janelle graduate after this season, we will have zero players from Cali. That will be really strange.
Alexander and Simpson are similar in that both are about 6-0 with hops. Some site listed Alexander’s vertical at 31”. Not sure where Simpson is at but she is in the class of 2023 so she will have time to develop.

Any idea when UH will announce attendance rules? With the recent spiked no way unvaccinated people can go. And I’m even hesitant with vaccinated people. Just seems like a total mess in the state right now. But I’ll be happy watching on TV. It is a total mess. Kermit the Frog Ige has no clue how to stop the transmission rate in the state right now. The numbers spiked when the state opened to tourism and tourists didn't have to test prior to arrival. They can just fake a vaccination card and are free to go around spreading the virus. What a mess that turned out to be. Maybe UH has a plan but it looks like we'll be watching the games from home to start the season. that's the joke about it. Europeans are not allowed to enter because of travelban. Because supposedly the vaccination certificate is not safe either. Our proof is really secure compared to the USA version. Anyone can fake the crap. But I say even without tourists the numbers would rise and rise. Man is a herd animal. Isn't made for being alone. Even New Zealand and Australia keep having cases and lockdowns in spite of the lockdown. Do you want to lockdown again and again? |

Even New Zealand and Australia keep having cases and lockdowns in spite of the lockdown. Do you want to lockdown again and again? The only other lockdown from New Zealand was put into effect today because there was one reported case. So not sure what your point was about "Even New Zealand and Australia keep having cases and lockdowns in spite of the lockdown." There is no official USA vaccination "certificate" as you called it. Not sure where you get your information from, but it's clearly not accurate. Not sure what your point is anyway, this is a volleyball site. The question was, what is happening with fans being allowed to watch Na Wahine play at the Stan. I said whether Hawai'i will play in front of actual people or not is still unknown. As he stated many times on tv, the Mayor is not for shutting anything down, but he wants proof of vaccination as one of the requirements for anyone planning on attending any large-crowded activity. |

Hawaii is turning into OH-University lol! Don't worry, a talented middle(s) may be around the corner. Also wait on the potential international pins. Not sure if the internationals will make an announcement though. |

Alright, so you picked one up from my backyard. Excellent work. Seems like a great recruit! I know rankings aren't everything but she was a top 50 recruit (#41) in 2020 per prepvolleyball, has USAV experience, and earned MVP in an Under Armour competition alongside other top recruits. She also has a 120" vertical Correct me if I'm wrong but Papillion La Vista, Papillion La Vista South, Elkhorn South, and Skutt are some of the better teams in Nebraska yes? I found that she got 28 kills vs PLV, 24 kills vs PLVS, 14 kills vs ES, and only 4 kills vs Skutt. Hopefully she gets more exposure to top competition like that 2020 Skutt team. |
