She's a setter coming to us from Kansas State. She red-shirted the past season (injury?) and will have a full four years of eligibility with us. She has numerous playing accolades, including an Under-Armor First Team All-American, and Gatorade Kansas Player of the Year her senior year in high school.<br /><br />So, I'd say our setter position is well shored up, even should Katie go off and be Miss USA and not return to us. It also, I think, probably puts us in pretty good position for the setter position for several years to come (Katie and Lindsay will both be in their last year of eligibility with us this fall).JMcAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00440193885039741934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-78145124505253671152015-05-27T10:44:40.802-04:002015-05-27T10:44:40.802-04:00Katie is certainly talented and attractive but giv...Katie is certainly talented and attractive but given the odds of most beauty pageants I'm thinking it is safe to assume she'll be on the volleyball club this season.BurnBrotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591664997592114722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-78219909472273059192015-05-27T09:29:17.419-04:002015-05-27T09:29:17.419-04:00Katie is fantastic (and not just as a volleyball s...Katie is fantastic (and not just as a volleyball setter...look for her to be successful in anything she attempts in life), and I'd really like to see her back for the fall as well. Like you, though, I wish her the best in Miss USA.<br /><br />If she does win that, and doesn't return, I'm ok with our situation at setter, though. Lindsey Palmer is a fine setter, and we'll do just fine with her running the offense, if necessary. For backup, Morgan Miller would be an option.JMcAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00440193885039741934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-30928028858583664922015-05-27T07:24:59.338-04:002015-05-27T07:24:59.338-04:00It is not that I wish Katie George bad luck in the...It is not that I wish Katie George bad luck in the Miss USA contest, it would really be great to have her at setter this year. She saved us a number of times last year by running all over the court to set up hitters for us.charlie mcadamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14800800256342567962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-41724959543183481942015-05-26T15:49:14.081-04:002015-05-26T15:49:14.081-04:00I can say that they did look much better in spring...I can say that they did look much better in spring play than they did in the fall. There still is room for improvement, but it was far more under control and on target from what I saw than during the regular season.<br /><br />And while I haven't seen her play first hand, I've heard numerous reports that Molly Sauer is really all that when it comes to digging and passing. So hopefully she will be a boost as well.<br /><br />You are correct, though, basically no one is disputing that passing and digging was our big bugaboo in the fall, and there needs to be significant improvement there for this team to be successful.JMcAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00440193885039741934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-67598386994517059302015-05-26T15:47:06.095-04:002015-05-26T15:47:06.095-04:00Yes, all 15 schools in the ACC play volleyball.Yes, all 15 schools in the ACC play volleyball.JMcAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00440193885039741934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-26318219102849431202015-05-26T14:46:55.542-04:002015-05-26T14:46:55.542-04:00Does all the ACC play volleyball?
