Another up and down match with another lopsided set and not in the Gopher's favor. However, they pulled out a win on the road, which is good.
Wucherer's serve/receive game will continue to be targeted throughout the rest of this season. Despite her SR issues, she was able to have one of her best offensive performances for the season. Actually...both Wookie and TayLa had plus performances.
Another huge success last night was our blocking. We held their best OH, Londot, to what I believe was a .079 hitting % with her 63 attempts. She has single handedly beaten us in the past, so that was really nice to see.
Then there was Z's really nice service run. She also came up with some very impressive digs during this match.
We lost a lot with the departure of Gros, Booth, Wenaas, CC, and Kilkelly. KCook and company knew that and brought in Grote, Awoleye, Murr and Z. Unfortunately, with these additions to our roster, their skills do not complement our returning Gopher players...resulting in the continuous ups and downs we have been seeing so far this season. Again, we shall see what this coaching staff decides to do after Post Season.
