175 miles to West Lafayette. NCAA allows 15 players to suit up and a total party of 25 on the bench, staff, etc paid by NCAA. Any above that UD picks up the tab, but I’m sure every player will travel. Program probably has to buy the tickets for all above 25 too. UD has a large roster of 18. We will eat up that 25 fast.

I just chatted with BTN+. No subscription is needed to see this streaming coverage. Woo hoo. I still haven’t cancelled my tOSU subscription from that match earlier in the season. I should stop and do it now. I won’t. Love donating money.

Heads up to all fans headed to West Lafayette this weekend. They have a clear bag policy for safety. No purses, seat cushions, fanny-packs, diaper bags, back packs ,etc. you can only carry in a clear plastic bag/small tote no more that 12” x 12” x 6”. Hope this saves all the husbands from having to run back to the car with your wife’s purse.

This is a pretty good review from looking at stats. They don’t have everything right, but I understand you have to guess at some things with stats. I tried to get a video of a late season Marquette Match to figure out who was really playing right side OH for them. I couldn’t find anything. I knew it wasn’t Barber, but had to go with the number of attack attempts off stats to use the most likely probability. They have done the same.

Wanted to add, Purdue has never lost a first round match. That’s pretty impressive. WSU has generated some firsts this year, so maybe they have one more in their pocket. If I had had more time, I would have looked at if they played and taller and stronger teams to get a gage how their speed will play out against Purdue.

I tried to look at ncaa stats yesterday for a couple matches. Their stat package is terrible. They have a video above it so it’s hard to access the links/segments. Plus I don’t like the options to view. I like split Box with play by play rolling on the same page. I do not know what package/software have. Sidearm is better.

Marquette had all their players introduced and go out on the floor. Dayton non-starters didn’t go out. It’s because it’s Marquettes last match this season.

Peterson May be having the worst match of her career.

Too much Ali Barber. Peterson comes close to her, but Barber is a stud.
I thought Papish played really well tonight.
Great season, just missing a few pieces.

Marquette takes set 3 and match - 25-22 - after Flyers led 19-17. Just too many mistakes.

If I can provide a tennis analogy. We are the dangerous singles player with a wicked forehand. But we double-fault at least once a game and run around our forehand so much that opponents know to hit to our backhand because its just not nearly as reliable.
We got beat by a better team. And pretty much every loss this year was to a better team. That was the reality. It was a large sample size too so there's no real getting around where our ceiling was -- good bad or indifferent we basically reached it. Might be disappointing but it is what it is.
Marquette, like most of the teams we lost to, did not necessarily excel at making plays. They excelled at minimizing mistakes/unforced errors. Fewer hands in the net, fewer feet on the 10ft line, fewer double hits, fewer receive bonks. Each match they just added up and in each set today they ultimately cost us. When this team got a good receive and set, we were about on par with all of them from Florida to A&M to Marquette. It was getting there that proved a struggle and too often we got in the way of ourselves.
We should be better next year. We lose some talent, but we also bring a lot back and add another sequoia to go with Moore. Speaking of Moore. She got better as the year went on. If we can keep improving her slide she can take more heat off JPete.
