Also, GG, I love your fire...but 4 REs today in 4 sets and getting benched. 6 REs last year in 5 sets vs. Pitt. It's literally the same story. The only person she can DS for next year (assuming a 5-1) is Anna because otherwise I don't think we can trust her to pass when the lights are bright deep in tourney. GG made a good step up this year, but she’ll need to make another huge jump in order to stave off Damrow or onr of the two incoming freshmen from taking over all her floor time. If we go back to a 5-1, she might end up being a serving sub only next year.

I don't think she is the problem tonight. Everyone sucked at serve recieve not just her. We also sucked at serving overall. They were not ready to play and at least a part of that falls on the coaching staff. Great year overall with a disappointing end. Already excited for next year. Waiting to see which of our front row from this year transfers out. Hoping no one but I have a feeling one will.

It might seem like Wisconsin has all this tournament experience, but for half of them, this was their first final four. They looked nervous at the start, got it together for the second set, and then things snowballed. It sucks, but it happens. That wasn't the Texas team that played Tennessee, and that wasn't the UW team that played Oregon. That's how it goes sometimes... I mean...there's losing....and then there's completely crumbling showing 0 fight. Tonight was the latter. Actually, In the first set, they clawed back, I think, five points on serve to tie the set. The 3rd and 4th, they tried to do too much, and it snowballed.

We haven't been pushed like that all year and it's clear we completely didn't know to respond and Kelly failed to push the right buttons.

Anna is a junior. She's definitely coming back. The 3 listed will have to take their COVID year to come back They all have same eligibility as Smrek and Orzol. But of those 3 I worry about Robinson the most. Not sure why, just a gut feeling. Frank and CC feel like they are definitely back.

Wow, that was painful. I was really confident we would prevail in a hard fought match, but man. Can't even be mad, we got crushed in basically all aspects of the game.
correct. I ain't as mad as last year. Don't know why. Maybe it's the blow out.

And I don’t like it. Why? I would think Devyn is the penciled in starter at MB because we can't live with a non-offensive MB like CC in a 5-1.

Now I really wish Charlie were coming in January. Worked well for Ella and Bergen.
