While I was looking at the box score to get our scores for the post above, I noticed Jess Sloan's numbers for the PSU match. WOW! Jess took 11 swings -- all from the back row -- against PSU and hit .364.
I remember during the match thinking Alaina might be hitting better from the back row against PSU than from the front row. Mostly because PSU is a great blocking team and they had a 4-5" advantage over Alaina at the net. That thought plus looking at Jess' stats sure looks like a back row attack might be a key to beating PSU.
Great match Jess!
