Watched that match and coaches for MIT really didn't do anything to mix things up after first and then second set thumpings. They had a few levers they could have pulled, but didn't. Great win for CMS and clearly played better than MIT. I don't know. Not a lot MIT could do against a clearly better team. The analyst on the broadcast actually was a vball person. As he noted, CMS decided to take away Rozario and she hit 0.000. MIT did not have enough options to overcome that. MIT was grossly overmatched at pretty much every single position. CMS was the far better team in this match up.

As he noted, MIT could have flipped the middles to give Rozario a different look to hit against. They also had a few pin hitter options and it would have made sense to try some other options on the left. Right side Keller was delivering so no change there. A 6-2 could also have helped get more hitting options vs. when Cheng was in front row with just 2 options, but they only ran it one set on the season, so not ready. Regardless, it felt like CMS was the stronger team, but would have liked to see things shaked up a bit.

I will go with: Transy, Johns Hopkins, Emory, CMS, NYU, Juniata, Whitewater, Oshkosh Agree with most, but I will take Hope over Transy, and I am not sold on Emory and Whitewater, but probably would put my money there. Hope wins set 1 25-19

Caltech dropped 6 straight sets this past season to CMS so I did not expect its sister school (MIT) to do much better. Sadly La Verne lost 3-1 to UW-Oshkosh.
