Interesting shift in the 3-5 pairs. And Nourses back to 2s. Dain & Gus’ final shift before the final run? Beach is not an opponent this year to experiment against so maybe..
Will see if it sticks tomorrow. Seits/Pater seemingly dominated.

Wow, did not expect that smackdown. No sets lost. Only 2 out of 10 sets had TCU get over 17. Coaches and vets had the team come out strong! First sets were 21-18, 21-15, 21-12, 21-9, 21-12. Same pairs as yesterday but Kriz/White swapped with the twins. Maybe Kris’s veteran experience is helping White’s decision making. Gotta see how this shift works against UC Los Angeles later today. UCLA has won all three duals this weekend 3-2 with the last one against CalPoly a squeaker having to win two 3 setters. They’ll get up obviously for the Trojans this late afternoon at 5:45pm PDT. CalPoly should move up in the polls after taking UCLA to the brink. (not sure why the Tourney site shows UCLA beating LMU 4-1 when the Bruins site says 3-2) Here’s the link for the tourney page and live stats in case anyone needs it. gopoly.com/sports/2021/4/7/center-of-effort-beach-volleyball-challenge.aspx

Haven't seen her on video much, but Pater looks very promising -- and clutch. And hasn't Phillips been able to adapt to Beach quick enough?

What to make of the UCLA loss? For the Nourses it wasn't even close. White/Kriz, Thomas/Goellner had little recent experience teaming together and this was Goellner's first week as a possible replacement for Raddell. Rematch this Thursday.

Yeah, odd that all five Trojan pairs played so well in the morning, but some struggled 8 or so hours later. This Thursday, UCLA plays LMU from 10am to 12pm and then USC right after at noon. At least Kraft/Maple got over the hump against Denaburg/Boyd. Also, JJJ switched her 4s and 5s.

Yeah, Pater and Goellner have lived up to the hype in their freshman seasons. Also, while not a freshie, Thomas has compiled an excellent record in her first full season as a starter. And as much as I see room for improvement, White continues to amaze in her second year. Pater 19-3 Goellner 10-1 Thomas 19-3 Phillips 4-0 against less competitive opponents Walker 9-2 White 26-4 If anyone wants to dive into the stats, here you go: usctrojans.com/documents/2024/2/29/2024_USC_BVB_Results.pdfDoes it speak to better depth this year that the Trojans have not lost yet at the 6s? Though some Court 6 matches were stopped when the first two sets were split.

Game Day! Fight on! ✌️ If you can’t make it, hope you can enjoy the stream. Link is always in the original thread post. If you can make it, here is a better run down of parking. All day parking at McCarthy Structure (Lot X) right next to Merle Norman is $20. You can also choose $4/hour. If you want to save a few dollars, and are willing to walk a few blocks, the Grand Structure (massive structure east of the 110) is $14 all day or $2/hour. Here is the link with map: transnet.usc.edu/index.php/daily-and-hourly-parking/Looks like weather will be perfect today by the time of the rivalry match. LA standard - 72 and Sunny.

Much respect for UCLA. Public universities are doing such a great job today. They keep plugging way, keep'in hope alive.

I'm particularly impressed by the commentators. Anyone know who they are? Most likely USC Athletics or Media staff or interns but they are very knowledgeable about the sport, the girls, and all the records/history/postseason. They even brought up Newberry and Whitmarsh's podcast. Definitely refreshing to have someone do their homework when commentating.
