Yes Texas! Sorry but there was nothing SD could’ve done in this match with Texas playing with that kind of intent. Fantastic season for them though! Historic even. Congrats to the Torerros! San Diego could have played better. But they had a great season, and if Petrie makes another Final Four, she'll coach better too.

I'll just say this. This is the best team Texas faced all year. And San Diego just faced the best team they've played all year. San Diego just wasn't used to having an opponent put this much pressure on their serve receive, provide this big of a block, have this good of a floor defense, and have this many hitters who can formidably terminate.
Great season Toreros. It was fun to watch this USD team all season. Anyone criticizing Blossom is off their rocker.
That said, it's great seeing Texas play with so much composure after the extended point loss in the first set.
Whoever wins between Pitt and Louisville is going to have their hands full. But at the same time, so will Texas. No 5'9 setter on the front row to take advantage of with either team.

Another throw by Eggleston It's a little late to be calling those. Maybe next year.

Madi Allen. Every single time. 😮💨 Is she the transfer from BYU that got aced a few times in the 5th against Purdue last year in the tournament?

Someone could set both sides of a net in a match and not run as much as Blossom did on her one side of the net. She gave it her all - what an amazing player given USD's ball struggles all season to only have losses at Louisville and to the superstar Texas team.

We have seen Texas play great semis and then get rolled in the Final let’s see what happens but whew. This was a match that didn’t entirely depend on Eggleston and if they get it done without her it’s hard to see a situation they lose in
