15-11 final! Yotes win! On to the final four (semifinals)! USD will undoubtedly host. Weber State play in Tulsa on Thursday. The semifinal could be Friday, Saturday or Sunday. I doubt it will be Friday. Too fast turnaround. That leaves Saturday or Sunday, and will have to work around the basketball games... I'll guess they will go with either 1:30 Saturday before the 3:30 men's game, or 3:30pm Sunday after the women's 1PM game? Either time works for me! Go Yotes! Wonder if they will take off the volleyball lines for the basketball game or leave it taped? Obviously if they have to retape they won't be able to play back to back with either basketball game. |

Wonder if they will take off the volleyball lines for the basketball game or leave it taped? They can remove that tape pretty quickly. Back-to-back VB/bb games have happened before. I'm not sure how fast they can apply it, though. Maybe if on Sunday it would be at 4 to give time to tape? I think ideally they would want to minimize the time between games to maximize attendance? Just a guess. |

They were removing the tape literally once the teams walked off the floor. My guess would be Saturday so either Tulsa can come up or Weber while still on the road.
SHOUT OUT TO OUR OWN. USDTATOR for winning the trivia challenge at the match.

Roads home tonight were crappy in NW Iowa. Normal 2 hour trip took 2:30. Snow covered highways. Was worth the trip though. Good job ladies.

I wouldn't be surprised if the NIVC give us hosting privelige prior to the Thursday match in Tulsa.
We are the higher RPI, seed, and vastly higher attendance school vs either Weber State or Tulsa. The other criteria are facility availability, and I don't see a conflict.
I believe they awarded us hosting prior to the match in Arlington, too.

I have to say the mantra I keep posting came true last night. "Find A Way to be 1-0 Today" With 27 attack errors & 11 service errors and yet the team gutted out a victory. The crowd was really into the game and UT Arlington had a loud section as well. The Yotes did a nice job of blocking. I agree there will be at least one more match in the SCSC this season. There is something special about this team, no matter their record. Go Yotes!!!

I think a good strategy might be to do the Saturday at 1:30, and offer a free VB match ticket to anyone that has men's bb tickets for the men's game (including season ticket holders).
Then offer free mbb tickets to anyone purchasing VB tickets. Separate seating charts. People might have to move between games.
You could also just make it an ad hoc double header and use the same seating chart, but you might end up with a lot of holes, where people attend one and not the other.
Either way, it could boost attendance for both games.
