JW making an early claim to repeat as Polish champs. Patry with 16 in his first match with the club, and Nobertlandy Huber leading the team with 18 points (including 7 blocks) in a sweep over Stal Nysa.

Looking at the list, there are a whole lot of D3 players playing pro overseas. I guess D1 experience isn't as important as I thought.

Volleyball.it seems to confirm the news "Monza: Staffetta di mercato al Vero Volley. Parte Maar, arriva Lagumdzija jr." Maybe it fell through, because Maar was playing in the test match today It looks like you are right, they say that Monza has not agreed to let Maar go |

Dave Smith a perfect 9 for 9 in attack as ZAKSA beat Skra in 4 sets.
He also had two blocks and an ace.
Shoji put in a 76% and 41% passing performance.

Thomas with 15 kills and 1 block in the Panthers recent 3-0 win. Aaron with 13 kills, 2 blocks and 1 ace in the Thunders recent 3-0 loss. This scenario will be consistent. Panasonic is stacked and will be in a contender. Hiroshima is very young and very little support around Russell. Regardless of results both Tom and Aaron will have wonderful experiences and return to us healthy and ready to go come spring time. |

RECORD / RANKING | Volleyball V League Official Site www.vleague.jp/record/Thomas Jaeschke and Aaron Russel off to great starts. Both are the top or near top scorers ever match so far (expected) Both of their teams went 2-0 this weekend. I think Zenit (Micah's team) won a Cup challenge this weekend too. |

Do you not have to have 3 Italians in Serie A anymore? Perugia only has Colaci and Gianelli. Semen and Leon as Oh, Herrera as Opp, and Flavio and Sole as Mbs mean they only have 1 Italian on court at times.

Pretty sure Sole has dual citizenship so he counts towards the total This what Sani is doing, it’s a smart business move honestly |

If you have dual citizenship, do you count as an Italian if you play for USA or do you need to be eligable to play for ITA to count?

Side note: I think Gabi Garcia had a decent game today. Padova got crushed but he was the only one looking even kind of good. I think his efficiency was only 30%, but a decent amount of that was due to some genuinely bad setting. Just, really not great. His serving was good though - if not an ace it pulled them to the back half of the court.
The Monza-Perugia game was closer than the setline would have you believe. They were passing well and attacking at roughly the same rate as Perugia. There were some... interesting? coaching decisions for the challenges that I think bit them later. Each set was really close and I'm excited to watch this Monza team. The Canadians are looking good and Ran's playstyle is fitting in well.
I'm a bit worried about Milano. Their game against Piacenza was not great and it wasn't even exclusively a Zonta instead of Porro issue. Kaziyski is not passing well and as of right now Dirlic isn't putting the ball down as much as I would hope. Piacenza was decent, but not spectacular. They had glaring weaknesses that could and should have been exploited.
I didn't get around to the other Serie A games this weekend so I can't speak on them, but a very early guess is that Monza could be scary despite being 1-1.
