Pressley and Grote look really good.
It's hard to see the far side, but Brooke has quite a few kills.

Never been to an AU event beforeβ¦well, because volleyball was in Texas. I was lucky enough to get in the scrimmage tonight. Wow, is that a fun fan event!!! Watching some of the volleyball stars of course was great, but just the whole vibe is put together so well. Lots of audience interaction, etc. I was told there will be lots more fun stuff added on the concourse on game nights. If you are in Arizona and like the sport or not, it is a must do!! Because you will enjoy it. Cheap night out for $15 for GA/$25 for court-side chairs and every seat has a great view. But GA is regular bleachers so be prepared if you stay for the double header.

today. but they're not broadcasting the first one That's bogus. It's the most exciting one! Most of the highest drafted players will remain consistent over the course of the season. The only exception is that Nootsara and Natalia will definitely be starters as captains but that could change in subsequent weeks (probs not though). Do you know what time it is happening at and when they will announce what the teams are?

Do you know what time it is happening at and when they will announce what the teams are? im not sure why they're not showing it other than maybe they want to work out logistical issues or interest in the draft itself isnt high enough to warrant all the work. I am curious who Betty's first pick will be... Normally it would be Nootsara but obviously cant.... I think she scrimmaged with Natalia so thats a no. Maybe she'll pick someone like Leah. (If any of the opposites are clearly better than the rest, that would be my first pick)

i'm surprised au doesn't offer an ancillary fantasy draft. they have all the mechanisms in place with how players get individual points, it would be real easy for people to draft their own team, and whatever the players get as a score that week could be used as a scoring mechanism
