USA downs Canada 3-1 to advance to semifinals
In the NORECA U21 matches in Columbus, the USA and Payton Petersen have advanced to the semifinals.
They have defeated Venezuela, Mexico and Canada to take the championship in their pool play. They now need to get by
Payton Petersen, out of the University of Louisville, totalled 15 points in the USA win over Canada 3-1 by the scores of 25-18, 25-14, 21-25, 25-18. The All-Americas Cup is being shown on You Tube on the U21 matches for North America in Columbus, OH.
Petersen will be a junior at UofL in the upcoming season and hails from Dike, Iowa .She is a twin, and her sister Jadyn plays volleyball at Northern Iowa where their mother Bobbi is the head coach of the program.
Kalyssa Blackshear, another Cardinals star, is an alternate on the squad.
Cards Volleyball is less than two months away. The will face Wisconsin at the LNFCU on Aug 28th. The annual Red and Black scrimmage is scheduled for Aug 22, at the LNFCU as well.
Sadly, Louisville Volleyball is one of the programs at UofL operating at a financial loss. Even though they do generate some earnings ,the costs far outweigh the earnings. And, they do charge admission. $15 for matches at the LNFCU and starting at $36 for KFC YUM! Center mathes for premium events.
