Kansas is a perenially reliable choice too. i would rather have been sent there than play minnesota at home high key lol You guys should just switch off making Sweet 16s on each other's floor's. Your problem was both getting seeded this year. |

Aww I really love this local announcing crew and you could hear how sad they were for their jayhawks. Great win and composure by the kitties down the stretch. Proud of KSC. Jill Dorsey Hall goes out of her way to not be a homer - since she is a Kansas alum. Leif Lisec isn't a volleyball guy who has gotten better over time doing this. Typical guy that never played volleyball doing the play by play for volleyball. Glad they got the eyeballs and recognition they deserve. I’ve said it before, but Jill Dorsey-Hall has educated me so much about the game of volleyball since I’ve started watching in 2016 and I’m sure there are more like me out there. I hear ESPN or Big Ten commentators that are a joke compared to her. When you’re trying to grow the sport and get more people watching women’s college volleyball, she’s really had a hand in it in the Kansas City area. Similar to how I enjoy Tony Romo’s color commentary. |

I'm an Illini alarm. And I'm still bitter. I’m a Mizzou fan so this might be a 3-way dislike of each other’s teams 😂 |

Slay Penn State. Hannah hit at a very impressive clip, sis is very much underrated imo because when she's on she can hang with the best.

Penn State had more kills 68-65, more digs 71-60, more blocks 18-12, and more aces 7-6. Mruzik had her typical great all-around game, both middles were very efficient with a combined 27 kills and .400+ h%, and Cam Hannah had an impact game (17k, .342). The severe and receive game was won all night by Penn State - and in the 1st 3 sets, Kansas was very bad in transition points (for which Kansas had been outstanding at all season long)
Despite this - Kansas outscored Penn State on the night and lost 15-13 in the deciding 5th set in which both teams hit at an outstanding % (Kansas at .562). How was this possible - Kansas had the best offensive player in the country having a Great match. Since the beginning of the November - no player has been even close to the offensive force that is Reagan Cooper.
