After Utah and then WSU, mainly what I don't want is another 5-set UW loss. Winning in 5 would be OK, but please not another 3-hour rollercoaster that ends up with the Husky car crashed off the tracks. This..... GO HUSKIES! |

I don't think it's rocket science here. If players are healthy enough to be on the court (though not 100%), run with it.
OH- Hoffman
OH- Endsley (DS Calle)
S- Powell
MB- Grote
MB- Sanders
OPP- Dreschel
L- Bays
Injuries aren't what is keeping UW from winning these matches. As I've said before, the glaring issues are the following:
1- Powell isn't bettering the ball right now, and kind of hasn't all season. She has NOT played anywhere close to a 1st team AA this year. Not sure what's up with her, but I have faith that she can right the ship. If we can get our hitters in better situations REGARDLESS of the passing, that will easily give us another 3-4 points per set.
2- The block against opposing LS attackers has been crappy. OH's have pretty much had a field day against our block... It doesn't matter if they are 1st team AA hitters like Drews or unknowns like Scott, our block has been terrible against opposing LS, which should be the EASIEST to block, especially out of system. If our block was at our usual standards, we don't drop any match other than Ohio State to date.
3- 1st contact. Well this was always going to be a work in progress, but hopefully with Bays more settled at the collegiate game, it's an upgrade to Crenshaw. If Dreschel and Hoffman can continue to work on their passing, even a marginal improvement will yield us a few more points each set.
We shouldn't be worrying about an minor injury here or there, we should be concerned about fixing the issues above.

Madi not suited up, I thought she was injured at WSU, seemed to be in pain on the sidelines after she was out of the lineup.

Bush has to step up today. Maybe even use Crenshaw in the front if she struggles.

And Crenshaw is taking warm-up hits (though she was also doing a lot of passing turns earlier.

Going to need a strong setting and blocking performance from Washington. Preferably from Sanders and Powell on the LS, not Grote/Dreschel (for fantasy reasons)

Flipping Spectrum increased my bill by 10 bucks a month. Why is the Pac 12 Network not on my $12 a month sports package? I could take $15 a month to add it! Ugh!

Emoni is a good blocker for a freshman.
