If Wagoner improves as much next year by as she did this year, she's going to be phenomenal. I see a player who could carry the team one day. She and other players would be so much better if the Big West didn't scrap the 2020 season |

Sucks that BVS had to have that broken play be recorded as a hitting error. Her only for the night.

Robyn probably not happy because UCR is the worst team in the league and they scored more points than did UCD. Team probably had a goal to play better than the previous night but the middle struggled and the team did not get more blocks than the previous night.
UCD hit below.100 and scored only 38pts.
UCR scored 49pts and hit.233.
Robyn can not be satisfied when the worst team in the league played better than the middle of the pack team.

Wahine are still a work in progress and very young. When I think about what the Dirtbags are going thru I thank God we have a coach who can develop players like Robyn.

Agree with most of the posters that Riverside was young and generally outmatched, but did a good job keeping the ball alive and fighting for points. As mentioned before, a lot of the Big West teams are young this year, so it will be great to see how the players progress over the next few years.
To me, BVS is the lead for conference POY. UCSB is too well balanced with no players really standing out, even though they are very impressive as a team. She showed what she can do this weekend and why she is so valuable to the team. And while I do understand some fans concerns about next year without her, I trust the coaching staff to develop the other players. BVS had great matches in 2019. She had 14 kills and hit .370 in the match against Nebraska. But she also had bad matches, like hitting zero against UCSB and CSUN. She was averaging less than 2.5 kills per set (although she might have been just in the back row for a couple of sets which may have brought down her average) and she only had 20 aces in that season. She almost reached half of her entire 2019 season ace total this weekend alone. So, I think the staff can find ways to develop another terminator by next season. It may not be an All American type hitter but someone will step up.
The negatives for me in this match was the setting. Not a good night for Lang. The obvious mistake was that mis-set to no one in the 2nd set. You could see BVS out of position when she tried to dig the ball and I don't know if she was trying to set Igiede or if she didn't realize there was no left side hitter. But I noted she has made those mistakes before. It comes with inexperience, but UCSB has 2 junior setters and even though one of their setters converted from libero, you can see how comfortable they make their offense look. And another poster made a good point about going to the hot hand. Running a diverse offense is good but if a player is getting kill after kill, you don't need to spread the ball as evenly. But I do like the upside for Lang so I think all of the playing time now will pay off down the road.

Hawaii has a lot of depth next year besides the DS position. But other than that, they’ll be fine without BVS. We will all miss her on the court though! |
