So who showed up for the big alumni weekend? I suppose Hodge and Fawcett had to be there. Anyone else like Harmotto, Quilico, Glass, etc?

The best part of the weekend was the attitude of the players. There was no panic in either match and winning these two will help build confidence.
Second best in this tilt was the defense which was very good. Lots of touches and digs by an active back court. OSU ended up trying to force impossible angles that went out.
But Mac seemed to acknowledge over using Jess-there were only three slide sets that I recall (of which 1 was good), only so so serving and some spotty passing. Lots of room for improvement and from the interviews it seems like the team is planning on doing just that.
Big weekend coming up.

Other interesting thing to unpack is how differently PSU coaches responded to Indiana v OSU. Several subs/repositioning on Friday. Only Maddy on Saturday. Would love to be in on that discussion.

I agree. I was surprised that there were no serving subs given the relative weakness of the serve game in sets 1 - 3. Better serves led to better results in 4 and 5. Ind. is the better serving team which might explain things.

That's kind of a light turnout for a roster of fourteen. Of course, D'Errico and Wilson are asst. coaches at Utah and Mizzou, so I guess they had legit excuses.

Counterbalancing that, Megan Hodge Easy and Nicole Fawcett are assistant coaches -- for the two teams playing -- so they HAD to be there 😎
