Congrats to Minnesota-Duluth for failing to win a regular season conference title for the 33rd consecutive season!
Yeah, I dusted off a post from 5 years ago. I'm not very original.
I honestly felt this was a home run hire.
For whatever reason, his teams could not finish. They could not finish off sets when they were up late, they could not finish off games when they were up a set. And they seemed to crumble when play went against them.
Women win and Jadyn Keeler is Women's Champion! Both in dominating fashion.
Keeler is 40 seconds over the rest of the field and the team has 5 of the top 15 runners (and 7 of 17).
UND 34, SDSU 53, NDSU 71
Just awesome! Congratulations to our Summit League Champs!
Men come in 2nd, their best finish in the Summit. SDSU with the overall #1, #4, #5 runners and 38 team points. UND with overall #3, #7, #10 and 46 team points. NDSU is third with 76.
UND's 2nd 5 runners would have finished 6th as a team, ahead of USD and KC. Also Busche for UND finished 16th overall and his score wasn't used. So there is a lot of depth on the team.
Great result! Congratulations guys!!
It is not out of the realm of possibility that UND could get two conference team championships this weekend, and have an individual champion in Jadyn Keeler. The men have 4 runners with top 20 times this year, the women 5 (and 3 of the top 5). Other than the performances of Keeler, these teams have been flying a bit under the radar.
UND visits Omaha for Summit League Championships.
I was not expecting a win, but would have liked them to take a set. Kennesaw St is a good team, they finished last year ranked 53rd in RPI. Picked to finish 3rd this year in the ASUN, which is a better volleyball league than the Summit.
