  1. Singletary and Ames are a very good blocking duo, but they need more help from the outside hitters in blocking. Kahahawai was our only outside hitter who was a plus as a blocker. Wenaas, Skinner, and Rutherford aren't very strong at it. That is another area in which Swindle was hugely valuable last year. She had 92 blocks last year. This year she and Carlson combined for only 27. I just never understood Elliott's decision to bring in another setter instead of another great back line player.
  2. How mechanical does my voice sound?
  3. Ten blocks to two was the biggest difference.
  4. Skinner blocked on the first one. Match. We hit .200. on the match. .024 in the last set.
  5. Wenaas shoves one over to keep us alive. 23-20. Kahahawai set too close. Dink blocked. four match points.
  6. Creighton kill. Singletary block, Carlson back in. Creighton block. 22-18. Wenaas kill weakside. 22-19. Net violation called on Texas. 23-19. Challenge. Kahahawai's left arm got it.
  7. Creighton kill crosscourt. I think we're nearing the end here, but Ames kills one on the slide. 18-14. Swindle finally back in. Long rally ends in near joust, but Creighton knocking it out. 18-15. Wenaas blocked. 19-15. Swindle and hitters not quite in sync. Creighton through block. 20-15. Serve error. 20-16. Creighton swing into the net. 20-17.
  8. Looks just out on review. Confirmed. 17-13.
  9. Kahahawai just killed one. She's out leading percentage hitter among out outside hitters today. Creighton off block wide. Skinner crosscourt called out. 17-13. Texas challenge. Looked good to me.
  10. Creighton on a roll again, thanks to some return errors, including a gaffe by Skinner, and us still not being alert about their setter killing instead of setting. That is 6 on the match for her. 15-12 Creighton We have 2 blocks this match. Both shared by Ames/Kahahawai.
  11. No, fourth set tied at 10 right now.

Carlson was setting, btw.
  23. Kahahawai is in. Two swings, first picked up barely. Second put down. 20-17. Skinner dink. 20-18. Texas won point on something weird there. Dig into the net, Carlson slid to save it, nearly going under the net, Skinner tried to pass it over, and Creighton blocked the pass out of bounds. 20-19. A lot of effort and luck there.
  24. Singleary missed killing an overpass. Their setter might have tipped it slightly. Then the Creighton setter threw one into an open corner. 20-16.
