I didn't bother to take down the scores. Northwestern is improved from last year. Transfer Cassie McLaughlin is a good player, very spirited and can hit and block. A major addition to Northwestern. Julie Purcell has lost some weight and looks good at OH (but doesn't play back-row.) Lindsay Anderson hits with more power now, and a lot smarter. Brittany Aldridge also is stronger in the middle. Courtnie Paulus is now at rightside....not very much better than last year, but learning a new position.
Northwestern is running a strange 5-1 offense. Stephanie Jurivich sets when in the front row (last years 6' 1" rightside) and is subbed-out in the back-row for Lauren Greenwood (listed at a generous 5' 7") who sets for the next 3 rotations. Appartently, this is because Greenwood is a better defensive player.
