So I am having trouble finding where I can watch the game against NDSU tonight.  

In the Big Sky all the games were available online.  We moved to the Summit so we can play NDSU more often, but now we can't watch unless we make a donation to NDSU, is that about right?

Not on the Tres or the Plus?

But the move will be better for all of us fans.

Is Bruggeman injured?  She has not played yet.

20-18 NDSU. 

[Oxbow6]

Definitely a less athletic and less talented team compared to past years.....but they get after it every point.

Is she there? 

I see Nieukirk isn't playing either.  We are doing well without them!

Summit League definitely reminds me of the DII days.........NO media coverage.

Ahrens sure had a great night subbing for Nieukirk - 12 kills & .391 hit %!

[bincitysioux]

I heard we won.  

I can't confirm though because there is little to no live coverage of Summit League athletic events..........

Good crowd in Turdville?

SRO......sold out

This year’s squad isn’t going anywhere. Got to beat your toughest competition when you play them at home, and they failed to do that against Denver and South Dakota. Hope we got some recruits coming in the pipeline, cuz we are talent deficient compared to what we’re used to.

Setter and OH took a big drop off from past couple years.

[SiouxVolley]

Disagree that there is a big talent drop off, but there has been a big drop off in experience.

Flores - L - Fr

Newkirk - OH - Fr

Ahrens - OH -Fr

Chwialkowski- OH - Fr

Rautio -S - Fr

Five freshman on the court at the same time.  Not that they are Big Ten recruits, but it normally takes more than a year to learn the college game and even longer to be excellent.  Pryor wants to build a program or else he would have gone the JC route.

Vail will need to be replaced at the MH position, but even she had a lot to learn as a P5 transfer.  Rutten, Wahl and Hunt are listed as MHs too, but only Rutten has played.

The team won’t be an eventual national top 20, but Summit League champions are easily within their grasp if they continue to work and be excellent teammates

Very disappointed with setter play, though a lot of it is not her fault. One play of hers in particular stood out to me to today - she reached for the first hit of the defensive sequence.
