Lost 1st 26-24
Started out really fast and I think adrenaline took us through the first ten minutes. Other than the score (25-18 second) this has been fun to watch.
Decent crowd here in Hilton, especially for an 8 p.m. start.
Pressley is arguably the best OH in the country along with Plummer from Stanford.We’re playing well. Baylor is on another level
When they got their HC, setter and Pressley at OH.Not a vball follower but when did Baylor become this good in vball?
Head coach, yes. But remember Katie Staiger... she was outstanding! Of course, Pressley, goes without saying. Their setter is known to not have the best hands but is still a great setter!When they got their HC, setter and Pressley at OH.
What was the call when we were up 25-24 in set one that put us back to 24-24? Otis wanted to go out View attachment 67461
baylor went over the net, but it was the third ball, so it would be just a normal block in that situation.
So you can go over the net on the third hit but not the first two? I’ve always been confused watching the daughters HS games. A rule I didn’t grasp.
Yep, was wondering the same thing.Not a vball follower but when did Baylor become this good in vball?
I just didn't understand a replay call? They must have blown the whistle?
Baylor hasn't dropped a set since September 12 against Houston. 25 straight sets won by the Bears since dropping the third in their match with the Cougars. That's kind of crazy.
I thought ISU played quite well, honestly. Baylor was very good, but it seemed like their strategy was to simply keep the ball in play and wait for the other team to mess up (unless Pressley was on the floor - she could put down as powerful a kill as anyone I've seen recently). Their resume' indicates they should definitely be number one, but they didn't seem 'dominant' like some of those past Texas and Nebraska teams we have seen. ISU pushed two sets to extra points last night. I don't believe we will be the only ones to do that well against them.
I thought our OHs didn't get enough good sets to make more kills and a lot of those substandard sets weren't the result of a faulty initial pass.ISU scouted Baylor well - others may follow the lead, but others do not have the middles ISU has, nor a setter that blocks as well as ours. If our OHs were cleaner, the match would have had a better outcome.
