I grew impatient enough today that our full schedule hasn't been released that I went internet digging and found the last missing weekend from the schedule:
The Bluejay Invitational at Creighton University
Friday, September 10 10:30 AM vs. University of Nebraska-Omaha 7:00 PM vs. Southern Methodist University
Saturday, September 11 10:30 AM vs. Creighton University
Alright, now we can get on with predicting W/L records and planning road trips : )

Any idea when the 2021 roster will be released? Are they waiting to see who shows up for the first day of practice?

I expect Illini to squeeze into Big Ten’s elite five this season. Illini played very tough schedule last year. All losses were to very good teams. They return everybody! Would like to see that. IMO competition in the top half of the conference should be tough. Wisc, Minn, Neb, OSU & Purdue trying to improve. Penn State, Illinois, & Michigan trying to move up. Any other contenders vouched for?

Someone land on her? I think she kinda collided in the air with our MB on the way down from a block and that threw off her landing and her ankle rolled like all the way. I thought it looked even worse than Thompson’s.

Jordyn told Hancock that it wasn’t too bad. Hopefully, she will be able to return for the semifinals. Hancock did a great job filling in. JT is expected back for the quarterfinals on Tuesday, but Drews had a great match tonight. Great comeback win against a solid Italian team.

brina had shoulder surgery. Season in question I think Really feel for Bruna- it sounds like she’s been dealing with injuries for much of her time as an Illini. Hope she’s doing alright and recovers fully soon!

Someone land on her? Landed on teammate's foot and rolled the ankle. Hope's it's nothing worse than a bad sprain.

Match so thats a good sign. Remember her Sr yr at Illinois she sprained her ankle before the Nebraska match but still played and led is to a win.

Hope she’s doing alright and recovers fully soon! I agree. She was just coming into her own at the end of last spring. That leaves Terry, Nunge & Gregus as our OH.
