I'm curious: Why is Minnesota playing with masks on, when it obviously isn't a tournament requirement? Seems a bit of a handicap. People don’t only wear masks when it is required by law.

Georgie Tech has good pin hitters, but every other position is lacking. If they could some upgrades in the other positions they will be a dangerous team next year. it's hard to pay close attention during a match but it never seemed like the GA Tech MBs were able to close a block against Rollins or Landfair. if you are cheating to double up on Samedy you may not be successful anyway. I'm reminded of the MN WI match where Rettke had something like 30 kills in a loss. I think GA Tech picked the wrong battle tactic.

GT was a very solid. But MN played a great, clean match. Love this team!

If CC plays, is there a Gopher fan who would swap any MN starter for a GT starter? Or a head coach trade? The Gophers should sweep. Are you actually implying Rollins is better than Bergmann? For this match tonight, under these circumstances, yes. Same at setter. Check out the box score. B1G vs ACC

OMG, I'm in California where we wear masks all the time. I'm just curious why one team in a match would wear masks, when the opponent is not.

I'm reminded of the MN WI match where Rettke had something like 30 kills in a loss. I think GA Tech picked the wrong battle tactic. I was noticing the same thing. Rollins and Landfair had their choice between swinging away or tipping to the middle (which was available most of the match). Samedy was either blasting away or being a decoy. Georgia Tech definitely was distracted by Samedy. Unusual to see outside hitters swinging away without much defense at the net.

I think all 5 of Landfair's hitting errors were on out-of-system plays, counting the back row attack. When she cleans those up, look out.
Rollins absolutely owned that back left corner.

Cerebral??!! Samedy didn't have too many options there The announcer was running out of options, too.

I'm giving my special shoutout to PITTMAN. What a beast at blocking tonight. I for one will miss her next season.
No doubt the team served their best game tonight.

I really hope Jenna Wenaas is aware of her immense worth to this team right now, even if she isn’t garnering much in terms of fanfare or awards.
Her passing and defense are so smooth and she is truly an unsung hero of the team right now - she is so appreciated!

Although you're at least the third person in this thread alone to sing her praises, so not sure how "unsung" she is.

My concern is her not staying here.
