Welcome to the BIG 12

How many years does she have left? and she is a 5'7" setter?

She was in the 2020 class - so she would have 2 years left with her Covid year.

Yes - 5-7 setter.

Yeah I watched some film on her, she is a baller. Spark plug who is a good all around player. Hits, sets, blocks plays d.

What is the info on Liz Gregoski? Can she play OH well enough to start in case Carter doesn't find her mojo or this is just a transfer to build some depth and play some backrow?

[trojansc]

We needed you K-State fans on the board when ya'll got snubbed a tournament berth in 2018.

She had a lot of injury problems and never played front row while at Wisconsin. She had a total of 3 swings this past year and 2 were errors.

That being said, she is a very strong server (11 aces this last season) and could be a viable DS for K State.

I actually think they were better than the 2021 team that did make the tournament (and more deserving, which can be a different measure).

I mean, generally when we're talking about the high 45's to low 50's in cutoff for the tournament, many teams will feel they 'weren't that good'. USC wasn't that good in 2016, but, missing the tournament still would have been a snub.

Lots of potential for this team. Bolding coming off a great season! Question will be the pins ability to consistently kill it. Will Carter have a better year than ‘22? Who sets for this team?

Could see them trying a 6-2 with Szulczewski and Legrand or Hinkle. Szulczewski could stay in to hit. Hopefully Carter gets her mojo back.

Looks like K State beat Minnesota in the spring match today.
