Beach downs the Bees (Alabama State) in a battle of the B's
Beach finally hits over 0.200 for a match, gets solid PT from the MBs with frosh Lomigoria and soph Sheffie playing, with Kennedy resting, 18 kills from the middle. with Meyer another 5 kills - good to see
will be interesting to see who gets the start at pins, and expect Kennedy to start with Bacon again in the middle vs. New Mexico State
former Beach player Starr Williams across the net as a starter for NMSU, going from 2nd Street to Las Cruces

AZ playing better today, up a set over NMS. When Sofia is on, the team typically does well, and getting help from the middles today too.

Complaint about Arizona games
why do some programs feel the need to PIPE IN MUSIC BETWEEN EVERY DAMN POINT. can we not have a few moments of SILENCE.
extremely annoying, the match is CONSTANT Noise.
someone @ Arizona must consider it 'cute' or 'neat'. it distracts from the match, IMO. especially cmon playing in front of 1000 fans in a 16000 set arena, it's like viewing/attending some 'work-out'
plus yesterday the PA guy was overly homerish, today it's at least calm. I get radio/TV being a bit homerish,
just for a normal PA, and all the guy does is annouce the score, the scoreboard there is clear, doesn't even say much about subs.
ok, rant over

I’d like to see Journey get some run in the middle.

AZ finally takes care of business and wins 3-1. Nice to see Wilson, Sofia, and Hodge all have good numbers.

Rita said the best part of the day was that it's over.
That comment doesn't help the locker room psych and it could make for a long season for the team.

Beach outlasts New Mex State 35-33 in teh 4th
Beach left side hitters need more confidence, they are not executing the sharp right attack from the left side or missing little putbacks just put the damn ball over if out of position, maybe 1 in 4 is headed in on the left to right attack. like 1-2 points thrown away every damn set, even those they win.
Kennedy did not play, not sure why not, and Frosh Lomigora played well last two days, but she's not the blocker Kennedy is
unusual overturn, NMSU got an overturn for a pancake that had been called on the floor, then Tyler challenged (not sure on what, maybe net) and got the overturn overturned. Not sure I've ever seen a double overturn with two challenges.
So then has there ever been a triple crown of overturns...overturning an overturn on an overturn for 3 different criteria?! that would be interesting if that's happened.
Beach can be pretty good, just not sure how much training improvement with the left side hitters Tyler and staff can up their game, I think part of it is simply confidence especially with Karach who's swing looks great just she misses so many by a foot

AZ up two sets over ABS. AZ hitting .488 so far. Did Briggs get benched or go out with injury, for Tucker to play?

AZ gets another win on the board 3-0 over Alabama St. AZ led by Sofia with Stubbe with 9 kills each. Nice to see Tucker and Vanek in with some playing time too.
