The ceremony was top notch! A celebration of women's athletics... I hope that was something we can share with other volleyball fans!

People probably already know this but captains were chosen after the scrimmage. "The team captains for the first week of official matches will be Aury Cruz (Gold), Ali Bastianelli (Orange), Tiffany Clark (Blue), and Lianna Sybeldon (Purple)." Looks like Im team orange. Fortunately I already have a lot of shirts that color already  you know, Ill say this, I was really on the fence about this league because of the format but Im really enjoying it so far. It helps my favorite athlete ever is a star but I think regardless I could get into it. |

The team captains for the first week of official matches will be Aury Cruz (Gold), Ali Bastianelli (Orange), Tiffany Clark (Blue), and Lianna Sybeldon (Purple).
Cruz went 7-1 in sets and won all three matches from the weekend, giving her 460 win points. Individually, Cruz earned 187 state points and 100 MVP points for 747 points overall.
Bastianelli went 6-3 in sets and 2-1 in overall matches to give her 360 win points. She tallied 249 stat points and earned 100 MVP points for 709 overall and the position as Team Orange’s captain.
Despite going 1-2 yesterday, Clark benefitted from being a part of Team Cruz for the first two scrimmages, ending the weekend at 6-3 in sets and 2-1 in overall matches, for a combined 360 win points. Clark secured her place as a captain with 298 stat points and 40 MVP points for a total of 698 points.
Sybeldon also benefited as a member of Team Cruz during the first two days. Those wins, along with her wins on Team Wilson on Monday gave her a 7-1 set record on the weekend and three match wins for a total of 460 win points. Sybeldon earned 204 stat points and 20 MVP points for 684 points overall and the final captain spot.
Sybeldon will have the No. 1 pick in the first Athletes Unlimited Volleyball Weekly Draft, followed by Clark, Bastianelli, and then Cruz. Tune in on Facebook at 6 p.m. ET/5 p.m. CT.

On first glance, I thought OH's/Setters were going to be heavily favored for the points.... guess not? That's good to see

I think DLC/Larson are obvious 1/2s but after that... it depends on which setter you feel good with, who you want passing, etc. I think Clark has a big advantage, not having to pick a libero. |

I think DLC would be my number 1 choice. Her attacking and serving is too good to pass up for this format where a lot of balls are gonna go to the LS. Larson is the overall better player but I’d want DLC for this league first. |

Hopefully before the first match that will be ready. |

I think it depends, and thats where Clark has an advantage. She doesn't have to know when is too early to pick one... all of the other captains will know which is the best passer/defender so that'll be who they want. Strategy is getting them at just the right time.. Clark doesnt have to worry about that for such an important position. |

Larson is the overall better player but I’d want DLC for this league first. I think if you're Sybeldon or Bastianelli you chose Larson. Middles need good passing to get involved. I could see Cruz choosing a setter. I think Clark would be the most likely to choose DLC. |

I know she isn’t great compared to other elite international players but I would have think her passing can’t be that far behind the other athletes and so since she’s a better attacker than Larson and her passing is still good I would take her |
