The IOQT's start in about two weeks, correct? just under iirc it's sept 15? I'm glad our pool is decently balanced. We get Poland, Italy and Germany which are all quality teams. Thailand is fun but shouldn't be a real threat. Then there is Colombia, Korea and Slovenia which are walk overs. The match schedule is pretty grueling. 7 matches in 9 days I do believe. We should see everyone on the roster play at least one match. Will Karch take 4 middles? If so, who will the 4th be? Butler or Hall? I wonder who the 4 OH's will be? I think Larson, Cook and Frantti are locks. Who will be the 4th option? Setters, Opposites and Liberos are all locked, IMO.

Bet kk will bring plummer for "blocking" purpose and for more offensive if the other 3 can't get it done she is a decent sub. But i won't question if they bring lanier instead of her too.
Hall and butler are on the same level/experience but hall is more aggressive and can play front and run attacks.

I don't think Germany will be much of a threat either since Orthmann is out with an injury unfortunately ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

Hall and butler are on the same level/experience but hall is more aggressive and can play front and run attacks. Neither Hall nor Butler are unseating Chi, who is clearly in her prime. I wonder if Haleigh or Dana will start opposite Chi? I just have a feeling KK will bring Plummer and Frantti along with Cook and Larson. Lanier and Skinner are very much going to be in the conversation moving forward. Seeing a Plummer, Rettke and Thompson front row is a TON of height at the net. Carlini looks to have recovered and is good form. I like KK running the double sub with Micha and Annie. I think Plummer will probably be the serving sub with Cook on the bench when/if passing breaks down or if Larson can't terminate. Thompson and JWO are the clear starters at their positions.
