i think we all knew the dropoff from last summer with larson and MBH would happen...but was there any of us that thought it would be THIS bad tho?

I now know why Carlini was left off the Olympic team.

Well at least the US have lost the last 6 sets they’ve played. I mean, that’s, uh, uh…never mind.

SWP >>>>
imo Kelsey x SWP duo can work with Frantti as a sub, the other spot isn't as safe. Just gotta add Thompson and find a new setter over Poulter or Carlini (unless they improve) Also Washington isn't that great imo, Ogbogu is the only locked middle for me.

To be fair, USA did lose to a better team today. I feel like our players are good, but not the best at their positions... USA seems very far behind Brazil, Italy and Serbia right now.

if we're not going to get a dominant offensive performance out of any of our players...we have to be better defensively
Washington has to be on the bench if she keeps up this performance next season

Carlini was the worst I’ve ever seen her and by a long shot.
USA was also just bad all around. We needed JT or we needed VNL Frantti to provide offense. We simply didn’t have that today. Were the connection Carlini had with the middles earlier in the tourney went is beyond me. Everything was under set and that is not acceptable. Was this mental or Italy just being better?

At least 30% of sets are unhittable, most for MBs. Lloyd is watching this with smiles

I now know why Carlini was left off the Olympic team. i think that's a lil unfair. true, she had a bad bad match. but she's been playing great all summer when given the opportunity (for the most part). just unfortunate she played dismal in the bronze medal match

Washington should've been benched in the first group stage.... but she's his new fav

Also my problem with karch is still not solved. Players have bad games. Make changes… Poulter should have been subbed in if not injuried just like she should have been subbed out in other matches. Washington should have been out matches ago. Our block is really bad.
