I have a feeling that no one is gonna offset the loss of maybe the greatest MB to play collegiate volleyball but idk I think Rettke is a talented player but it is certainly a stretch to say she is the best middle in college volleyball history. She literally only won POTY because she returned for a 5th year and they couldn’t give it to Samedy and ya know because she had an absolutely ridiculous stat line and her team made the FF but yea definitely only because they couldn’t give it to Samedy

I assume not a very long list… to be consistently one of if not the best at your position for 4 years is rare and there’s not many players who can say that. I’m not even a Wisconsin fan but can you explain to me how that would be a stretch? thought I’d compare her to another likely candidate : foluke akinradewo career hitting pct : .446 career average b/s : 1.3 Dana hit .418 on her career and averaged 1.46 b/s, pretty close numbers but I don’t know who you might have in mind as your pick maybe I’m missing someone with bigger numbers

No ONE player is going to do it (though KPS seems high on Smrek’s future), but if Hart returns to form, the combo of Smrek, Hart, Robinson, and Crawford could end up being as productive as what they had this year, if not a bit better. This is all predicated on how the libero position ends up for Wisconsin. There needs to be someone who can play defense at least close to what Barnes did for the Badgers, in order for the front line to have a chance at the kind of production I think it possible. Someone on the roster needs to step up significantly, or a high-level transfer needs to come in.

In terms of all time greats in the middle don’t forget Danielle Scott from LBS. I think she was a 4 time Olympian…

People will discover that Hildebrand is actually a mortal human being. a mere mortal will lead Long Beach back to the NCAAs for the first time since 2014, and a first round win at a minimum

They seem to have a strong aversion to giving it to a non-Final Four player, but they've done it in the past, most recently with Bricio.

Samedy: 4.75 kps, .254%, 22 aces, 3.61 dps, .72 bps Nuneviller: 3.96 kps, .249%, 23 aces, 3.19 dps, .27 bps If the setting improves . . . .
