Frank from the back row pounding one down to put us up 11-6

11-6 after a backrow kill by Franklin. TOM Iowa

I actually think the badgers are playing pretty well. But so is Iowa. They are handling the badger serve pretty well and that is giving them options. Badgers are dedicated to defending Jones and she is still getting a lot of kill.

It is John Evans and also Reghan Coyle (former IA player)

[Wiswell]

Franklin is hitting .562. Iowa's game must suit her. Cross court shots all night long they can't cover.

Franklin getting her shot off at will.

[ndodge]

Feeling like a 22 or so Franklin-kill sweep, but we'll see.

[badgerbreath]

Why are we so bad scoring on freeballs.

Oh, I remember Coyle! Strong RS, heavy arm. Good out of system.

Overthinking it.

[badgerbreath]

Franklin is just unstoppable. Shanel serves!

[rainbowbadger]

SHANEL IS IN!

[ndodge]

Shanel in and serving well meaning she's at least getting out there for a few points. TO IA.

[badgerbreath]

And she goes on a serving run. First time the badgers serves has reliably caused stress.

19-11 after Jones hits into the net. TO Iowa.

OK, my last post about the broadcast. These announcers are the best I think I've ever heard.

It's like they're calling a baseball game on a radio but actually know different kind of serves and zones of the court. So refreshing to have people who actually understand volleyball and aren't trying to dumb it down.

Have to add that I just heard that this announcing team does the radio broadcast for Iowa. Makes sense with the play-by-play.

Dear ESPN, or whoever, please hire them.
