Good vibes, so far so good. Kari is a fast learner.

I was able to attend the game tonight in Denver. I was really impressed by how well NDSU played, it was my first game I've attended since the Oklahoma match last year and record aside, to my untrained volleyball eye, NDSU is improved from last year.

Hope NDSU can finish the year strong, really happy with the performance tonight. NDSU was clearly the better team at least for this night.

Great to hear. Did Kari go with the mainly freshman lineup again?????

[roadwarrior]

NDSU starters: Emily Minnick; Monica Claxton; Hadley Steffen; Hannah Jessen; Emily Miron; Jenni Fassbender; libero Emily Milligan

All are true freshmen except Fassbender, who is a sophomore

Thanks Road. I am glad she didn't just throw her hands up in the air and shrug and has shook up the lineup and had the gumption to throw that many freshmen out there.

The young lineup started but Degagne and Commack played the majority of the match.

Denver was without 2 of their better players, and 3 contributing players.

Real sloppy match, NDSU hit .206 and Denver was at .182, but they are young players and it's good for them to get some confidence.

The way i look at this, "the Bison are one win or one SDSU loss from clinching a spot in The Summit League Tournament" so lets hope for the best.
