Who are the star players for the Illini this year?
Senior outside hitter (and Marengo, Ohio native) Raina Terry and 5th year middle blocker Kennedy Collins are both having strong seasons. Kennedy's slides have been especially on point so we'll hope that some good passes enable that attack tomorrow.

This is a must win for the Buckeyes to have a realistic chance at finishing above .500 and they should have the edge. They have struggled in some sets with the teams below the 1st tier (maybe Penn State doesn't belong) of the conference so far but haven't been in danger of dropping a match yet. I think they will sweep, but 2 of the sets will be 2 or 3 pointers.

It's beyond me why Burbage isn't playing..either for Nunge or Bingham. She's so much better offensively than both and it's not close.

Side note- Tamas has absolutely no sense of when to call a time out. 2 straight points and Ohio State calls a timeout. 3 straight points and we don't call a TO...at the end of a set with both remaining. Make it make sense.

Game point, we tip, they transition, attack a ball we would tip, and we lose. Familiar story, but we apparently are unable to learn any lessons.

At this point we can’t be picky about style points. The Nuts just need to win sets and matches any way they can.
