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

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

Is this the year Penn State misses the tournament?
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.
