Think it was Ah Mow-Santos who was in charge of tracking that last year. could be wrong.

With so many DS it will be difficult for him to keep track of them. Moreover, keeping track of the game substitutions may become tricky if he uses a lot of them.

4. the comment about Maglio moving to OPP was for 2017 after Taylor is gone, not this year.
As for Berg having ‘a lot to say’ Shoji has valued the input from all his assistants. Just as he listened to Ah Mow-Santos … and Hall … last season, he’ll listen to Berg and Pestolesi and Hall. But Shoji will have the last word.
6. as someone pointed out earlier, R-Fr means she’s used a redshirt year already

7. as mentioned, they may Skype during practices. They’re planning something along those lines. I wouldn’t worry about it. Plenty of ways for them to get information.

14. Taylor will hit left in one rotation.

17. et al. they have a lot of options.

The only other thing Shoji said about the setting position when we spoke Monday was that Iosia had the best hands of the three.

Fair points. The proximity of the setter and the hitter often determines the accuracy of the set. With the “middle centric” line-up the 4 sets to the middles are no more than 5′, as opposed to the longer sets to the outsides.

The straight forward OH, MB, Opposite line-up often faces a double block. The middle centric line-up forces a 1 to 1 isolation on the blockers, due to 2 middles running “quicks”. (Minnesota uses a similar system)

Shoji could also incorporate a hybrid system, switching back and forth (with Annie or Mags as the opposite). Many, many options.

The hardest is blocking. A great serve is a great serve..on any level.

Norene’s jump serve is pretty darn good, too. I think that neutralizes her and Higgins, not separates them.

Anyway, I would prefer not to see Nikki on the left. I think the right is where she has developed. She can really see the full court from the right side, which is why men have their top hitters there and why it is right side hitters can be so effective. The court looks very different from that side of the net.

Nikki is solid, knows her game out there. I would hate to see the D set gone, too. It’s hard for players to play on the left in the front and then transition to the right in the back. Not easy. Nikki needs to stay on the right. We have options for the left right now. Greeley, Granato, Castillo and Sibley. Within that four we will find the right two to play out there.

I’m freaking excited. Especially to see Carlini play in person. She will be our country’s next star.

That will work at any level.

Can’t compare high school to college. High school players are not as adept at passing as college players so it’s easier to ace high school players. However, if she improves quickly and gets into a faster rhythm, she may get considerable playing time later in the season, especially against weaker teams in the conference. A starting role may be possible near the end of the season if she happens to surpass Higgins. I wish her well.

According to Maxpreps, she had a 24.2% ace percentage last year.
