After looking at the stats, you would have thought Melani Shaffmaster was the Libero for the Gophers. She had a heck of a game back there. but so did Wenaas and Rollins. In fact, the entire team was a digging machine tonight.

My concern is her not staying here. If landfair moves to the right then she’s the L2 next year no question.

Ugh I'm gutted! I didn't know this. But happy for him. Once, when Minnesota hosted a regional, he accidentally let out a "Point U" on one point, which, of course, isn't allowed at an NCAA match. It was really funny! which game was that?

For my fellow stats nerds - Shaffmaster actually leads the Gophers on the season in digs as well.

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! Why is she not serving?
Seems like a silly decision to have Landfair serve. Not like she's getting tons of aces?

Wouldn't blame her in the slightest if she transfers to use her covid year elsewhere.

Regarding using the covid year, there seems to be an assumption that Samedy and Pittman will not take advantage, is that right? How about the Badger roster - are they bringing key players back for the extra year?

And if Samedy comes back? Does anyone really think that will happen?? Not a bad gig. Fall Semester with the Gophers and then right to the pros. She ain't making the National Team in 2021.

It seems we're getting off topic from last night's match, but since the discussion is here, I'll keep going.
It'd be awesome if Samedy and Pittman would come back this fall. I'm nervous that the Badgers will bring their seniors back and would like to keep pace.
Regarding Samedy and the National Team, she does have NT potential, doesn't she? Not sure of the NT roster and what that looks for her. I assume Rettke would be in a similar position.

I don't remember exactly, but it may have been in 2018. (Or, for that matter, maybe it was in a first or second round match.) I kidded him about it during one of the breaks, and he laughed and said this was the first time that had happened in all of the NCAA matches Minnesota had played at home. You could tell that as soon as he had said it, he immediately thought, "Oops."

Landfair has a good serve.
