We are lucky to be up 2-0
To be fair, 11 of those hitting errors are ND blocks, and we’ve already established that they are out blocking us.

Third set going more according to plan.

No, she and Blyashov have been going back and forth in playing. Will Blyashov start on Sunday? Possibly.

ND's block seemed to be zeroed in on Rubin.
Is this the year Penn State misses the tournament?
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - paloalto - 10-03-2025
Cal scored 5 points in one of the sets against Louisville.
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - johnbar - 10-04-2025
Louisville could sweep Stanford, if Stanford is playing like the inexperienced, discombobulated team it sometimes appears to be. OTOH, if the Cardinal is focused and playing its best (as we have also seen at times this year), they can prevail. I expect it to go four sets at least.
It would help if Stanford got more offense on the right side. At Texas, Harvey at 10 kills and 3 errors (in five sets); versus Florida, 11 kills and 2 errors (four sets). Last night she had only 2 kills and 3 errors (partly due to Notre Dame's strong blocking, as previously mentioned).

Mighty Penn State managed just 6 in a set against Nebraska.

At least Penn State fans have stopped bragging about last year's NC.

Nebraska is obviously the team to beat; but I watched set 1, and wow is Penn St a mess. Couldn’t receive serve to save a life. Players running into each other on a basic bump a free ball back. sets to nowhere. Full on clown car act in set 1.

Blyashov seems to be improving as the season goes on. I would take the shot and start her today. Harvey though right now is the bigger concern for me. ND was not good for her as noted above.

The thing with Rubin is she does everything else well even on a bad or keyed on hitting day. Led the team in digs, receives a big chunk of serves. Led the team in serving.

In fairness to Harvey, it’s also Parks’ setting, she gave Harvey some tight low trap sets. Fully supportive of Parks in the 5-1 but her setting is still a work in progress. The players that are better at adjusting to not perfect sets (Rubin and Sayer are both really good at it) are doing better unsurprisingly.
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - CompSci87 - 10-05-2025
Back and forth in set 1 vs Louisville, but Stanford takes it 25-21!

Well, something got fixed in a hurry because Harvey was unreal the first set. Five kills in six attempts with no errors (.833 hitting percentage).

It's been Kurt so far. She's had the second most swings (9) behind Rubin in the first set, though only hitting .111 (2 kills, 1 error).

Blocking has been much better so far. Interesting going with Kurt so far...maybe just because of her big game experience. Pretty solid crowd at Maples.
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - BostonCard - 10-05-2025
Second set not going as well; Louisville is up 22-15 and poised to even things up at 1-1.

Penn state losing their excellent setter now a month ago really hurt
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - BostonCard - 10-05-2025
Ooof, not a good start to the third set; Louisville with a 5-0 scoring run.
BC
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - mbdude - 10-05-2025
Louisville getting so many mini runs.
too many tips again, no sets to hit
RE: 2025 Women’s Volleyball - BostonCard - 10-05-2025
Yeah, barring a big turnaround this set, we are probably looking at overcoming a 2-1 deficit, which we aren't going to do if we keep playing as we have in the last couple sets. Louisville is up 17-10 in the third; we are hitting .111 in the set.
