Parrocchiale has been a first class passenger on the struggle bus trying to defend Plummer’s cross court swings sending her the film from the Florida match

VM is missing one game, but Haak is hitting .446 for the entire italian league playoffs lmao
Her and Plummer have the same kill %, but Plummer has been blocked 3x more.

Plummer aims for low seam pretty often which definitely gets blocked a lot I would attribute it more to Haak’s swing mechanics. I think her LONG arms + less predicable arm swing mechanic + incredible range all help her. Haak could be leaning like a 45 degree angle on her approach and still turn it the opposite way. and she is just faster and more explosive than plummer imo

I wonder how often Plummer is lined up against Maja. she was pretty much exclusively against Maja in Game 3. I havent looked for the other two.

I learn so much on this board about the sport by asking questions and reading everyone's feedback. Especially those of you who play the game. I love all the technical talk. I'd like to see more of that on these threads. Thank you all for these awesome responses on this page. 😊

Plummer aims for low seam pretty often which definitely gets blocked a lot Yes, Haak’s reach is incredible. She touches the ball at the highest point, always look like she’s over the block. She’s shorter than Kathryn but jumps higher. I bet her vertical is higher than Kathryn.

I wonder if that has to do with Imoco, and USA for that matter, running such a fast ball to the outside when in system? Or is it just how Plummer is built? Haak seems to hit a fairly fast tempo ball quite often.
