Just a pre-game reminder that all of these players play professionally through out the year and you're more than welcome to join the international threads for their league matches (some week days end of Sept-April, mostly weekend mornings) Turkish League Thread : Jordan Thompson, Michelle Bartsch-Hackley, Chiaka Obgogu Italian League Thread : Jordyn Poulter, Micha Hancock, Haleigh Washington German League Thread : Justine Wong-Orantes Japanese League (no thread yet): Kelsey Robinson, Annie Drews Undecided/unknown/retirement?: Jordan Larson, Foluke Akinradewo, Kim Hill And the thread where almost every other American in a major league is playing Jordan Larson will be playing in 🇨🇳

I pegged her for retirement / marriage / "doing anything I want" kinda of life after Toyko games. "Find your passion and keep doing it." quote from Warren Buffett.

Jordan Larson will be playing in 🇨🇳 No way, really? I pegged her for retirement / marriage / "doing anything I want" kinda of life after Toyko games. "Find your passion and keep doing it." quote from Warren Buffett. Saturday will be her last match with USA - she's already said this. I'd bet this is her last professional season. She's getting married soon and wants to start a family.

Re Jordan Larson , this is an article dated 8/4/21 from the Washington Post. The impression I had when I read it that she was retiring after the Olympics. Could have been just from Team USA though. Link and excerpt below. Jordan Larson’s volleyball career is almost over. There’s one more thing she wants to achieve first
TOKYO — She has been doing this for 20 years now, swinging her open right palm at a 9.5-ounce sphere of synthetic leather with as much force as she can muster from her 6-foot-2 frame. Jordan Larson has been on the U.S. women’s national volleyball team since 2009. She has played professionally in Bayamon, Puerto Rico; Kazan, Russia; Istanbul; and Shanghai. She has raised championship trophies and worn medals around her neck in arenas from Milan to Nanjing, China to Bangkok — and, of course, London and Rio de Janeiro. And after this week, she isn’t going to do it anymore. So Larson, the captain of the American squad competing at the Tokyo Olympics and at 34 its oldest player, took a moment to reflect Wednesday as she led Team USA out of the tunnel and onto the court for its quarterfinal match against the Dominican Republic. Here in the single-elimination round, she never knows when the next time will be the last. For the rest of this tournament, she will treat every point as if it’s match point on her career. www.washingtonpost.com/sports/olympics/2021/08/04/jordan-larson-us-womens-volleyball/
