NCAA Bracket

[4EverAGopher]

Gophers are gonna need to be nearly perfect in every aspect of the game and get some help from Pitt along the way for any chance of a victory.

They had opportunities to win sets 2-3. However, if your setter struggles getting the ball to your most explosive top scorer, your chances of winning really do go downhill quickly. I know and understand Hanson was tripled blocked but setting needed to change along with Julia's approach for the Gophers to have their best chance of winning that match. Also, Tay's offense was once again pretty much non existent...that needs to change too.

I'm hoping Nellie was the correct hire and she can work more with Stella before Spring matches. The QB of the volleyball team needs to be on top of her game, at all times. We are not a very good passing team and being an OOS offense will continue next season unless that is ever resolved by this coaching staff. We will have 1 of 4 DS/L on the roster that can pass....that is Z before her injury.

Pitt is beatable and Purdue might just do that.

Different NCAA bracket, but Concordia plays for their 10th national championship (today, I think). No one on the roster over 5'11" -- and a division that hasn't been ruined by money. Too bad it's on ESPN+.
