the discussion was referring to winning the coin toss for the opening set. does vb101 say to receive too?

i would try to ignore vb101 sometime for the coin toss for the 5th set particularly if you have the right setup. 5th set being the deciding set is all or nothing do or die, especially if you came from behind now its the time to attack. you may need a good steady consistent server and even a leader that takes command ie adolpho (or it could be simplicity such as big player + standing float). her standing float plus she pulls something back like its kind of i describe bolt action has a nice arc and trajectory and lands near the center of the court (especially useful if your opponent is caught playing campfire defense since it drops). whatever it is, her serve was sound and she played like a boss. even gave a smack down at the net.

also i didnt say dont jump set ever. but in this case unless you are giving to a player ie magill to jump up into the sky with. if it works setting flat footed and is not necessary why bother jump setting? especially when you have a big 6′ 1 setter?

Can you think of any top notch setter that doesn’t jump set?

45. glad i gambled on not showing up to SSC. no pink wahine, no looking alive/gameplay is slow, and so much for 2 decades commemorating the sheriff.

add to that cal poly actually somewhat went toe to toe despite being mostly new…oh yeah, not much thrilling serves in part of na wahine.

but then again, referring back to my post #49, a younger ‘less experienced’ squad can very much go toe to toe with a ‘veteran’ squad. in the oia d1 championship, they had ‘super sophomores’ 5 set thrill very close a 5 seniors, 2 juniors lineup.
