Probably checking out Abby Vanderwal at 1st Alliance. One of the top pins in the country. I just now noticed Abby's name in VolleyballMag.com's dream team of the week. Sounds like she'll be a huge signing wherever she lands- would love for her to choose Illinois! Have to imagine Tamas is looking for a true OH in the 2025 class. If we have good upcoming season, it will give a big boost to recruiting. |

Have to imagine Tamas is looking for a true OH in the 2025 class. 1st Alliance has a 6’2” soph S/RS Addy Horner. That would be an awesome 1-2 punch in recruiting for ILLINOIS! She is on the same list as Abby |

Looks like they ran a 6-2 in one of the latter sets with May setting. |

Does May jump well enough to block?

The only info I have on the match is that Illinois played very well winning the first three games. Then they played a fourth where Tamas mixed and matched and they lost that game. No info on specific individuals.
I don’t think they have the second setter to be able to run a 6-2 but they would love to figure out a way to get some swings for Mosher. The transfer portal setter they hoped for didn’t materialize.

In February Maya Imoto-Eakin, a setter from Hawaii, “signed” with the Illini and was announced by Tamas. Does that mean she will be on scholarship? I thought Tamas couldn’t comment on walk-ons until they actually enrolled. If she is on scholarship how many open scholarships do we still have? At 5’9” is she big enough to run a 5-1?

The 2018 final four appearance didn’t seem to have a great impact on Illinois’ recruiting. 💁♀️ |
