Meh. She’s tall I guess. We’ll see. It’s still a team sport.

Meh. She’s tall I guess. We’ll see. It’s still a team sport. I was also thinking of how it will affect WBB. Maybe not at all, but she was a 2-way player at the ‘Ville. Scholarships are tight for us in both sports, but especially volleyball, since they only get 12. If she was suddenly interested in transferring, I doubt we had a spare. Our next two classes are big and well-ranked, plus the 3 super-seniors next year.

This is a good reminder that there are a lot of reasons someone picks a school/team. Winning % or success isn't the only reason.

Just a quick update on Summit League transfers, all info coming from the Volleytalk message board. (the spreadsheet: link) Overall, there have been two transfers out, two in, and there are still 4 in the portal wanting to transfer out (2 Grad, one JR, one SOPH). overall, I'd say pretty below-average number of transfers.* updated May 3rd, 5 transfers out, 4 in, plus 7 still in the Portal. Denver and Oral Roberts appear to have been negatively effected the most. Both schools will have a new coach for the 2023 season. South Dakota:
out: Alexis Moses, 6-0 Freshman MB (4yrs eligible) to D-II Upper Iowa (redshirted in 2022)Denver:out: Hailey Green, 6-2 Junior OH/OPP (2 year) to West Virginia-----Brianna Green, 6-1 Grad MB (1 year) to TCU-----Lorrin Poulter, 5-11 Grad S (1 year) to Purdue-----Lauren Carter, 5-10 Soph S (3 year) -------------- in: Cassie Davis, 6-4 Senior OH (2-year) from BaylorNDSU:out: Syra Tanchin, 6-1 Grad OH (1 year) (All-Summit in 2022) to Florida International SDSU:out: Jadyn Makovica 5-6 Grad Libero (1 year) ------------ in: Sydni Shetnan 6-5 Soph OH/OPP (3 year) from LouisvilleOral Roberts:out: Jeslyn Spencer, 5-8 Grad OH (1 year) ------------ -----Kaia Dunford, 5-11 Junior OH (2 year) ---------- Kansas City:out: Devynn Day, 6-0 Junior OH (2 year) ---------- in: Sila Ozyurek, 5-11 Junior MB (2-year) from JC Miami Dade College St. Thomas:out: Hannah Pham, 5-9 Soph S (3-year) ----------- Western Illinois:

Updated the above post with Summit Transfers - Denver and ORU are probably the most affected (both with have new coaches). I'd guess Omaha and NDSU will be our main rivals in the Fall, with Denver taking a step back?
