Why was Kelly Claes not at Opening Ceremony? Answer: she was also deemed a close contact to someone who tested positive. Also under modified quarantine in a hotel room. So Phil, Jake, and now Kelly. Odd because Kelly and Sarah have trained with other teams the last few days. I don’t understand this reasoning at all… if Kelly is quarantined, Sarah should be too.

And if Phil is being isolated, so should Nick and their coaches. It’s like they JUST discovered this. Jake was taken out yesterday. So I’m guessing Kelly was too.

dumb question: Why does A-team go by April/Alix on the uniforms/even on the Olympics website while the rest (or majority) go by their last name?

There are a few others. Melissa/Pavan. Brandie/Bansley. Liliana/Elsa. My guess is that April wanted to distinguish herself from Summer Ross and they decided to do both first names.

Brazilians also go by one of their many first names.

Watching the Cuba/Australia match and the ref was kinda iffy on the double/lifts he called on Cuba compared to Australia, even some of the balls he let go for Cuba that should have been called were iffy and some good ones he called.
Australia are a level above Cuba so I don't think the calls would have made a difference, but it was noticeable. Anyone else watch the match?

Sarah isn’t playing well so far at all. Her passing, blocking, offense. She’s not dialed in right now
