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. nah, as long as karch doesn't insist on his fastball system and just feed moderately high balls to JT and whatever outside is starting opposite kelsey, japan will not have a chance

Japan's defense is one of the best in the world. I think it's going to be a battle. I'd be elated if we sweep. I just don't think it's that likely to go down that way.

I didn't watch Japan in Week 3. How did Airi look? Does she look like she'll be in the conversation for the MB position for Japan or no?

It looks like Avery still has a brace on in USAV Instagram story 1st, I hope she's okay. But is it normal to bring someone who is (knowingly) injured on the final roster? Could it be a precautionary thing?

Could it be a precautionary thing? In the past it's happened at bigger events lol. Also, I havent watched the IG story, so maybe she just now wears a brace. Wouldn't be super uncommon I don't think. I know players who wore braces when they played in college.

Maybe it's just for posture thingy oh those arent braces lol. that's a thing that collects data about what they're doing (i dont know if they use it for movements, jumps, etc)
