I feel like digs should count as long as the ball gets back over the net, even if it's a free ball.

I wish this went more than 3 sets
So did I, just so I could watch more. But later I would have been pissed that USA let it go more than 3 sets.

You’re just now realizing that the Samoan middle isn’t the fastest or most agile on the team? Not sure a joke about speed is something you should try slamming others with today. Not Samoan. Her dad, David Dixon, is of Maori ancestry and is from New Zealand. Did I miss something? Why is race being brought into this ?

Did the quick sets with salima get posted? Kind of looked like she was having a panic attack

It's not the defender's problem if the attacker can't kill a ball lol I personally think any dig where a setter has a chance to set at least 2 hitters -- that should be logged as a dig. Even if the setter butchers the dig - that's on them. Or maybe a way to separate the quality like on passes? Any dig counts -- but positive or 'perfect' digs? The more stats, the better.

I misspoke, but was meant to be a lighthearted joke about Reach continually dissing on Dixon not being fast enough. I’m what the kids these days call a Dixon ‘stan’ and definitely didn’t mean to be offensive.

So bottom line, if you are going to summarize Plummer's performance, how will you assess her for this match?

if i remember correctly, dixon was a big part of the 2019 VNL finals success and really steadied out the team defensively. I've always thought she was team USAs strongest all-around middle by a considerable margin, is versatile and does a lot of little things well. I would want her on my team but we'll see what the US coaches prioritize. Yes. I like Dixon. She has nowhere near the flash of some of the other, especially offensively. Her highs are lower than others, but her lows are higher than others. You always know exactly what you'll get out of her.

She'll get you more points than any other OH on the roster, but will give up more points than others on the roster. And, sometimes she'll just clean up her own damn mess.
