To read the article you may want to try this, google Kirsten Sibley, once there open article titled,”UH gets potential 6-rotation player.” I would copy and paste but I am unable to. Hope this helps.

Hey Cindy

On the previous thread you commented on a poster’s scenario of Jeff and Robyn coaching while Dave is at Olympics and you said that won’t happen. Does this mean you think this is his last year? Just curious on your opinion.

UH should have a lot of options as to who plays where.

5. Huff hasn’t played that much OH and only reason she was being used as an OH last year was because of the uncertainty of Taylor’s injury. She showed improvement on the Euro trip but didn’t get a lot of chances to play back row.
At the moment there is no plan for her to redshirt. Don’t know if she goes back to middle or tries to compete again for an OH spot.

2. I guess the answer is if Hawaii offered a scholarship, she is good.
since there are only 2 seniors, at the moment only two scholarships were available and both have been taken.

Smith’s commit is both indoor and sand. have to wait and see how that plays out.

4. don’t know where Mitchem will end up. She is very versatile from all accounts. First she has to get her AA and get through the NCAA clearing house. She’s on track to be here by the opening of camp, which is Aug. 10

You also have Burns coming in who is a middle. I would expect at least one of the freshmen to redshirt but you never know.

Part of the 2016 class is also Emma smith, one of the best liberos in So Cal, maybe the best one in her class.

I would like to see Huff redshirt this season in volleyball and learn the middle position. Mcgill only have one more year and Mitchem two. If Huff redshirt, she will enter 2016 as a redshirt soph and be able to compete for time as a RS JR after Mitchem leaves.

I just don’t see Huff as an OH since she is not that great a passer and does not have the explosiveness when approaching the ball during attacks. With Granato(a heavy hitter), Castillo and Greely( more solid all around players) and now Silbey, Huff will have a hard time cracking the starting lineup. the other option is to play her OPP where she can just concentrate on hitting a blocking.
