What i mean which Setter ran offense and won the set, i don’t think the stats are needed but i just wanna know if Cabello won more sets than Glock did or Glock won more sets than Cabello did running offense the entire game Oh, I see, gotcha. If my memory serves Cabello won the first two. The third, they both were playing in both teams, and I think Cabello came away with the 4th, but it was very close, like 27-25. Wow it’s looking like that setting spot could be anyone’s

Glad to do so. The biggest challenge is to not get *so* immersed in being a fan that I forget to come back to VT to post some updates and comments as well as try to answer questions. It's a little easier to do at the scrimmage, but I get so into the match during regulation matches that I'm usually a lost cause for updating here. As I mentioned, no actual stats sheets were available, but the Sports Information Director did include some in her write-up on the gocards.com site (and now let's see if I can use a quote block with a source from somewhere else). Highlights included leading scorer Cara Cresse, who had 17 kills and four blocks. Anna DeBeer had 16 kills, 13 digs and seven blocks. Charitie Luper had 10 kills, hit .333 with five digs and four blocks. Hannah Sherman boarded seven kills and nine blocks. Setter Elle Glock had 36 assists and seven digs with freshman setter Nayelis Cabello adding 42 assists, 12 digs and an ace. Libero Elena Scott had 17 digs as did opposing libero Kamden Schrand.

(they haven't opened all of the upper level sections) The tickets recently went on sale again so maybe they will open it later, my colllege did this so that all the front and lower seats could be bought before the upper ones my guess or maybe they arent opening it at all lets see it depends on the amount of tickets fans bought anyway

🫣 how are my girlies feeling about the season opener against Wisconsin? I would give anything to go to that matchup. I think Louisville has fewer question marks than does Wisconsin, especially after last night’s exhibition, so I feel good about that. But Wisconsin is Wisconsin, and if Charlie’s connection with Frank gets ironed out and Smrek is back being herself, that’ll be close.

🫣 how are my girlies feeling about the season opener against Wisconsin? I’m obviously biased but I have Louisville picked to win just because there are fewer unknowns. However I think it undoubtedly will be a great matchup. Even though I’m rooting for the Cards, I hope that Smrek and Orzol are able to play. With it being the AVCA Showcase and two heavyweight programs going head-to-head, I just want to see an all out battle and some great volleyball. Let’s see some SportsCenter-worthy rallies pls.

But Wisconsin is Wisconsin, and if Charlie’s connection with Frank gets ironed out and Smrek is back being herself, that’ll be close. I agree we definitely have fewer question marks, but wisconsin has arguably better players in quite a few positions. I think they have the advantage on us at setter, MB, OPP, and Franklin is certainly better than our OHs, I'd give our two the edge over orzol offensively but she's a much stronger passer than ours. Imo, about 6 or 7 of Wisconsin's key players would start at louisville rn, otoh I think only about 3 or 4 of louisville players could grab a starting role on wisconsin. I dont think this necessarily means wisconsin will be better than us, but I do think it's worth thinking about when talking about their 'question marks'. Yes they have some, but the possible answers to those question marks are pretty elite players lol. Louisville will likely be more cohesive and comfortable at the start, but wisconsin has more individual player talent to work with imo.

At least they have queen Elena Scott to balance the gap in other positions 😌

Louisville will likely be more cohesive and comfortable at the start, but wisconsin has more individual player talent to work with imo. I completely agree with every part of that, but to me, that cohesion element is going to be what matters most on day 1. I think for example that Charlie is ultimately going to be the more talented setter at the position, but she forces an offense incredibly different from what Wisconsin’s hitters are accustomed to at this point, and with a few of them having been elsewhere this summer, I don’t expect that to be ironed out on day 1. Franklin didn’t look like we saw her last year, Orzol seems to be out right now, and they’re trying to put the pieces together at bro. Louisville looked far more ready to go to me in the footage I’ve seen than what we saw from Wisconsin yesterday. But again, Wisconsin is Wisconsin. Individual talent, yes. But the game isn’t played in a vacuum, and I think I’m betting on Louisville for this one. Ask me again two months from now and I think I’ll feel differently.

There's a bunch of little pay to park lots within 5-10 mins walking distance from the YUM center that are opened for events held there, I've always easily found a spot somewhere in one of those. I don't know the exact location of them, but you kind of just start passing them once you get within about a half mile of YUM. They have signs and meters and some of them have attendants standing at the front of them taking cash. There is official YUM center parking that you can put into your maps, but that's always been much more time consuming getting in and out imo.
