Love this roster for USA, it's 🔥🔥🔥. I'm sooo stoked for Lanier, Skinner, and O'neal. Also, really happy to see Ogbogu back.
Can't wait till Wednesday, it's too long to wait.

Let's go USA!! As I said before, I can't go. :-( Anyway, I have two tickets 112B Row F for this match if someone is still looking! Just message me. Also, I have one ticket for every other session if anyone just needs one. Not looking to make any $$, but would love to break even! if you post on the texas thread i believe there are people interested

Japan is a defensive game. I bet we see some unpredicted changes at multiple positions…

USA should 3-0 pretty easily imo I actually think this is the least likely outcome. Don't sell Japan short. They didn't start Inoue or Hayashi when our B-/C team played them in the league round. We really don't know how well we are going to match up against them. Last year in the 2022 tournament, they spanked us 3-0 with basically their same starters they are using for the finals this year. Granted, USA also wasn't playing with it's best line-up either. We didn't play Japan again the remainder of 2022 so this should be an exciting match. I won't be at all shocked if it goes 5 sets.
