Vballfan Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 It's gonna be another great year for volleyball! Faith Dooley looks even stronger this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vballfan Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Oh, and another thing, I want to praise the coaches on leading the race and bringing recruits in early. Apparently, on Tuesday, they had a recruit in from West Fargo (!Sheyenne High). Kalli Hegerle is a 5'11" or 6' all state (as a freshman) setter and hitter. Class of 2018. I hear she is being recruited as a setter here.This keeps with Coach Pryors commitment to "go big". Sure would be nice to steal another player of this caliber from NDSU's backyard! Love it! Way to go coach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to go coach!She was a little raw last year, but she was also probably 14 years old. She looks to have a huge upside, and one of the few I've seen that takes a legitimate next-level approach when attacking the ball. She seems to have a high volleyball IQ, which is often under-appreciated. Her dad and uncle played pro beach for a while and were two of the best adult players in the area for a long time.It might be a challenge to get her to UND. Her uncle is coach at Jamestown, which shouldn't be a big problem (UJ vs UND). However, I seem to recall her dad was a DB/LB at NDSU during their D2 glory years of the late 80's or early 90's. I'm not sure how strong the ties are to NDSU. Edited August 14, 2015 by undVBfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmksioux Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I've heard that there is a scrimmage open to the public at 7:00 pm tomorrow. I believe it's free of charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 I plan to be at the scrimmage, and will try to post as much as deemed reasonable. Very excited to see the ladies on the court! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 I got to Betty a little late. Sophomore setter Sydney Griffin is on the bench, as is another girl who I can't figure out. Freshman Sidney Mattson is setting for one team, and assistant coach Mia Tabberson is setting for the other. Courtney Place and Amanda Harmett have some power.

Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Julia Spacek is the other girl on the bench. Kristen G seems to have gotten better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Amanda Harnett is a lefty, too, so that will come in handy to keep defenses guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Mattson is a fine setter, so I'm not too worried If Griffin can't play right away. I don't know if there's a backup backup setter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) According to a parent that i was sitting by, it's her back. I have no further information. Scrimmage just ended. From what I can tell, it was A squad vs. B squad. A squad won all three sets. Edited August 26, 2015 by Dustin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxVolley Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 The games in Ames will be the toughest RPIs, last year's of course, all year:Dayton #56Marquette #33Iowa St #17 If we even win one game, our RPI should shoot up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 fraase looked all right - she was on the B squad. Like I mentioned in my first post, Place and Harnett are most impressive. Both of them were playing on the A squad. The other A squad players were Moser, Dooley, Julia K, Hart, Clarke, and Mattson was setting.

UND Fan Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 How was the crowd? How are students informed when a scrimmage like this is scheduled? Many students there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeder11 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) How was the crowd? How are students informed when a scrimmage like this is scheduled? Many students there?Less than 100 people, maybe about 50 people when you exclude AD support staff. There were some students, former volleyballers: Nikki Husfeldt, Jessica Fontes, Felcia Ulrich and Emily Thompson. A number of football players were in attendance, too, including Ratelle, Disterhaupt, Harmeston, Bell, Cox, Nevermann and William James.As for the scrimmage, I was really impressed with the power of newcomers Place and Harnett and the creativity of Fraase to keep the opposition off guard as to when she might spike and when she might just tip it over and let it drop for an easy point. Harnett has some hops for only 5-9; she can get up over the ball and put it down with authority. The blocking tandem of Dooley and Kaczarowska looked quite formidable yesterday night. I can't wait to see what we look like when all the firepower is on the same side! Edited August 26, 2015 by Teeder11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmksioux Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 The UND vs Dayton match started at 11:00 am this morning.
