Allyson Ross, Solana Beach CA Late 1990's Ah. I remember her. I saw her play in person! I honestly didn't know she was a Californian.

Allyson often platooned with Kate Fitzgerald. Cook started the one who had a better practice week and substituted the other if the starter was having a bad game or if he was out of timeouts.

At 5-10, she'll be the shortest setter we've had in a long time.
Rainbowspouse says she reminds him of Val Nichol.

All this talk about her being not-that-tall, but Charlie looks a veritable giant in this video compared to the girl setting her! Is she playing as opposite in a 6-2? Could she come in and set a 6-2 and hit with Hammill her first year? [Immediately ducks to avoid objects being thrown by the 6-2 haters]

Smrek, Demps, Robinson, Crawford, Wrobel, Franklin and Orzol will all still be here.

Smrek, Demps, Robinson, Crawford, Wrobel, Franklin and Orzol will all still be here. Depends on if Demps, Robinson, and Crawford use their COVID years, but yeah, it's a stacked list of hitters. Doesn't necessarily argue against running a conventional 6-2, but the similar old idea of running Hilley as a part time hitter in a 6-2 was to address a perennial weakness in attack from the pins.

Anybody see the video of Smrek dunking a basketball on a alley oop? Its on her Instagram story. A bunch of players have it on their instagram stories now. Amazing, lol. What an athlete. Total stud. Still only 18!

I lived for many, many years in suburban Los Angeles, in the 'South Bay'; ran or biked down 'her' section of the Strand a thousand times. If I have the right address for her, she lives literally four blocks from the beach, where she no doubt lived playing beach, etc. (though she'd have to go 'all the way' down another eight or nine blocks to get to the permanent VB net stands, near the Hermosa pier. Or a whole half-mile up to the Manhattan pier and 'courts'.) I hope Wisconsin winters aren't too much of a shock for her. :-) She needs to be around for about 5 months in Madison. Maybe she can take the winter semester remotely from Hermosa Beach. It might depend upon her major.
