Not at all surprising that Hart was nowhere to be seen tonight at the UWGB match. Much more surprising was that Sydney Reed was also nowhere to be seen. No idea what's up there. And Liz Gregorski was in sweats, not uniform, took part in no warmups, and looked a little "limpy" at times (though was still doing some dancing around duribg play, etc). That poor girl.... Sorry about Gregorski. The post match comments from Smrek on the web site did say that Hart had talked with and texted her before the match to help her and wish her the best. As for Reed, I hope that nothing major is amiss. The band has suspended practices due to COVID-19 protocols. I hope to keep everything far away from the volleyball program.

I feel for her. Hopefully she recovers quickly and fully.

Hart's tear is obviously serious, so she wouldn't be mobile. She is probably going to head for surgery sooner rather than later. if it's soon, she may have been asked to isolate after testing.
Hopefully nothing serious going on with Reed absence, either health or otherwise.
The only "good" news is Smrek got to start before league play.

Could Reed be travel limits or a red shirt? Also hoping everything is okay there.

Wow, Hart’s a big loss, right?
Tough break for Wisconsin. And with Rettke and Hilley back, this is their best chance for the NC in a few years.

Set 2: 21-10 Wisconsin
Devyn and Dana go up for a block.
Devyn's foot lands on top of Dana's foot Devyn's foot bends sideways Devyn hits the ground.
I pass out.
Devyn gets up and is completely fine.
I regain consciousness.

And I was just talking about how she and Loberg will be X factors for the Badgers this season. She came in to her own watching her over the years. I'm sad that this had to happen to her but she seems very optimistic about recovery and moving forward. Best of wishes to her!

Dana Rettke has only 7 HEs on 137 swings so far. That is incredible.
Smrek: 14-1-18 for an HP of 0.722 over the weekend. That's close to B1G ROTW honors. Jardine hit 14-1-23 for 0.565 in only one match. So, she would also be under consideration I'd think.

There is a post on the NIU website that the match is sold out WTF?!? I looked a couple dozen times, and there was never any facility for buying individual match tickets! There was ONLY description of walk-up tickets. So how the hell is it suddenly sold out!?! I am not happy! (Anybody got a spare for Saturday?) There were maybe 3 or 4 club teams there watching the game, so I bet it was strategically done to prevent their home court from being taken over. I can’t really blame them, and I really doubt the match was actually sold out. There seemed to be a decent amount of room to squeeze people in. That said, I had to hit up the opposing team to get a ticket. I got in on the family pass from my cousin, who started for NIU last night. Pretty cool to see her play live for the first time, though there wasn’t a chance in hell she (or anyone) was going to dig out some of those rockets from Orzol. The NIU girls did really well handling the Badger serves though, minus a few of Julia’s aces. Overall, it was a fun first Badger VB road game!

Sheffield Post match comments to Jon Arias
on Gio and Barnes
"Both her (Civita) and Barnes have a lot of similarities, their numbers are very similar, Barnes gets her team to win a little more in practices....that has been the edge...not a little bit, for 2 years in a row we win at a very very very high level with her (Barnes) team, in almost all competitions (in practice), its like 85% winning percentage over 2 years, that kind of says something Gio as you know is VERY GOOD." We can go in a few directions with players, today's was Gio's opportunity." (to play Libero, just like it was Jardine on left, and previous day Loberg and Demps)
