A lot of our players working out together:

Also with Avery Van Sickle (UW - 2021), Autumn Watts (UNM - Sophomore), and 2022 Raegan Beers.
Not sure if Stanford is recruiting Beers (she doesn’t use social media, isn’t that crazy?), but she is ranked #22.
I'm admitting my ignorance, but what/who is Bosgana?
And re this photo, nice that they are working together, but what health precautions are being taken? Certainly not in this photo.

As much as I can deduce from the Australian travel restrictions a person who spent the majority of the past 2 years overseas could be granted an exemption. I think Jaz Shelley fell in that category

It appears (from Instagram) that Jump and Brink went out to Colorado to work out with Jana, Ashten, and Fran
And yes, 1st thing that caught my eye was the lack of social distancing

as a doc, i would offer that this is not baseball. there's going to be a lot more exposure as they play, from panting and sweating at a distance of 2 feet, than from standing quietly next to one another. if you don't want them exposed, then you don't want them practicing defense or scrimmaging and certainly not playing a game.

In regard to PAC-12 pre-conference travel restrictions, I don't know if this was posted elsewhere. University of Central Florida Volleyball Coach tweeted Cal will be playing at UCF for pre-conference.
I tried to link to the tweet but could not figure out how to do it so I copied and pasted it.
@UCF_Volleyball
looking forward to Cal,Fla,PSU,Georgia Tech,Georgia and Fla St!All have had post season success (NCAA/NIVC).Travel schedule is Tx A&M, Texas, Miami, FAU and FGCU. We will be ready for
#AAC play!
In another tweet the UCF coach posts Cal-Berkeley is visiting UCF so there is no doubt he is referring to the Pac-12 Cal.

In big news elsewhere, the McCallie era at Duke is over. Duke is looking for a new coach, and you have to wonder how that affects our recruiting long term as they do compete for some of our recruits.

I would be very worried about Duke, depending on who they pick to coach. When Goestenkors was coaching, she got a lot of kids who would have considered Stanford... so this is very worrisome, imho. Duke is really the only school that can compete with Stanford from an athletics and academic side, at least perception wise. Doesn’t translate to some sports (i.e. volleyball) but does in others (i.e. tennis, soccer).
I am hoping the new coach isn’t a spectacular pick.

Interesting that Goestenkors makes that list. It would seem that Duke has a lot of options. Of course, who even knows how much of a season there will be at this point.

Is that sad violin music I hear off in the distance? (Sorry, couldn’t resist. I know we have potentially a similar case, but I never have any sympathy for the Evil Empire.)

Looks like it’s “thanks, but no thanks” to Goestenkors

They barely noticed when she left for Texas. Stupid on Duke's part. Good for us.

At FIBA U16, she was the tournament’s second leading scorer at 19.2 PPG and led with 4.1 APG.
Was more of a volume shooter at that tournament, 6.4/20 (32.1%) FG per game, and just 2/23 overall on three-pointers.
