Not an inspired match, but after the first set. PSU was in control.

Jess hit .306 (14-3-36), Hannah hit .409 (12-3-22), but Taylor and Allie both hit .214, (6-3-14) and (5-2-14) respectively. Like just about everybody else, wish that the sets would be a bit more even.
Not a great connection with Taylor tonight. The first 2 sets to Taylor were not good. Not sure whether that was Mac or Taylor. This was a night where one would think that the middles would do better. On the other hand, PSU serve receive wasn't the greatest tonight.

OK, good to get at least one win this weekend.
I'm preparing myself mentally for the letdown on Sunday, LOL!!!

I don’t get it. Why waste energy and physical prowess on Iowa tonight. Sunday is much more important. I would rest your big2 (so what if it goes 4sets) and let the bench get some floor time. Obviously, until you sit your big two that have an affinity towards one another the pattern Repeats and repeats-and repeats.
Either your setter is coachable or she is not.

I remember looking up an older game of Hurta last year to see how she was as a player on Youtube a little while after it was announced she was coming to Penn State. Then being so shocked at how well the libero was playing because she was keeping so many balls off the floor and reading the attack very well. Completely forgetting that was Grimes playing and I feel like I’ve seen her start to play like that again these past few games. I had question marks as her being the libero at the start of the season but definitely think she has been settling in really well and the game seems to be coming more naturally to her again.
Also have noticed Starck’s defense has been improving so well lately but still wish they’d start utilizing her as an attack option in the back row more. Really excited to see how the remainder of the B10 season goes!
