High Point won 3-1 so two 0-1 teams going at it tonight. Well need to get after it. I expect Cal Poly to take care of High Point at 6:30 pm.

HP has been the surprise team of this tournament. The got swept by Cal Poly but hung with them 20-25-19. Second set was overtime points just like the UD-CP match. We will have our hands full with them tomorrow.

I am not buying the 24 hour pass to watch the video of the UD-NIU match. I'll pay $3 but $7 is too much for one match when you don't even know if they have announcers and if so are they any good.

TO Dayton at 19-19. We were up 18-14 before letting NIU in this match. Good timeout but we need a pass to get the serve back.

NIU takes set 1 - 25-20. Here were our assists that set
3 Brooke
2 Maggie
1 Jane, Sierra, Margo, Jordan and Jess
You have to ask, "what's wrong with our passing that we can't get the ball to our setters?"

It looks like we are going with one setter this set. Brooke appears to be starting at Rightside OH for Sierra. I would shorten our rotation at this point. Too many players and to complex.

Jane just set Brooke for a kill so that's exactly what's happening. Good move by TH.

TO NIU. UD up 10-7. Jane is the only one with assists this set. She has 6 so far. UD is 0-4 in SETS this year so far. There were way too many players in the rotation. We will see if senior leadership rises.

It took us more than 10 hours into the season to win our first set this year. UD takes the second 25-18. The only person with an assist this set was Jane. She had 12. Two points here, others could have set a hitter, but if the hitter didn't score, there was no assist. You play on. And, this has more to do with our passing than any one setters ability to feed a hitter. When 7 different players get an assist in the first set, it's a passing problem, not a setter problem. I have no idea if two setters work with Peterson and Hubacek in the line up. Both those players play the back row. Too many combination of players on the court wasn't working. Team still needs to settle down and take control of this match. Good Volleyball teams have a rhythm to their play. I doubt we have that yet. And it's very important to get into that grove and sync as a team.

UD wins 3rd 25-12. It looks like we are starting to take care of business on our side of the net. Good set.

Amber serves the last 5 points. UD wins 25-14 and goes 1-1 for the day.
I didn't buy video, but I'm willing to bet the first set tonight might have been the worst set by a TH coached Flyer team ever. It could not have been good, but credit TH for making the moves to help his team right the ship.

Seems like the women started their season about 4 sets too late. But once they started in the second set tonight, they put the hammer down. NIU has the Mustangs today and have a real good chance of going 0-3 in their tournament.
