We've posted the Match Preview for Penn State vs. Eastern Kentucky. Here's the link: Match Preview: Penn State vs. Eastern Kentucky And we've posted the post-match write-up with stats: Here's the link: Penn State Downs Eastern Kentucky
Here's an excerpt from the Match Preview:
Match Preview: Penn State vs. Eastern Kentucky
After five straight wins in the friendly confines of Rec Hall, Penn State travels to South Bend Indiana for three away matches, starting Friday afternoon at 4:30 p.m. ET against Eastern Kentucky (1-7).
About Eastern Kentucky
Eastern Kentucky started the season with seven losses in a row. But led by 5-10 So. OH Celina Sanks (11 kills) and 5-10 So. OH Danielle Hicks (10 kills), the Colonels swept Northern Kentucky at home on Tuesday. 6-1 Jr. Johanna Boyer registered 18 assists in the match, while Chloe Rojas topped all players with 21 digs.
For the season, Sanks leads the team with 2.70 kills/set and 2.73 digs/set. The Colonels are hitting .155 as a team, compared to .236 for their opponents.
And here's an excerpt from the Match Write-up:
The Nittany Lions were expected to sweep, and they did. They were expected to dominate, and from a fan’s perspective, they did — though in the second set their hitting dropped off noticeably. The team hit .361, led by 6-3 So. MB Haleigh Washington (9 kills, .467 attack %), 6-4 RS Sr. RS Aiyana Whitney (8 kills, .400 attack %) and 6-2 So. OH Ali Frantti (7 kills, .636 attack %).
6-0 RS Fr. setter Bryanna Weiskircher led the team with 9 digs, with 5-6 Fr. libero Keeton Holcomb contributing 8, and 6-2 Sr. OH Megan Courtney chipping in with 6.
◾Nia Reed recorded the first kill of her Penn State career. Also the second. And the third. Congrats Nia! ◾Simone Lee served for (we believe) the first time this season (and registered an ace!) ◾Aiyana Whitney also served for (we believe) the first time this season. ◾We saw the 6-2 again, with 5-8 Fr. setter Wilma Rivera and 6-1 So. OH Simone Lee subbing in for Weiskircher and Whitney.

Just asking, does anyone know if the live feed from Notre Dame's website will be captured and uploaded to Youtube later?
Not sure I will be able to watch during working hours today.
The person who has been uploading matches to Youtube this season has been a godsend.

I will be a little surprised if EKU scores more than 15 in any set. It's quite possible they will be held to 10 or fewer. This really is a total mismatch.

It seems like a good time to let the subs play and see how they do. I hope Russ has them playing b/c they are one injury away from being needed badly.

Don't expect substitutes for libero or setter. Never saw them subbed in the Dom/Micha Era no matter who they played.

Frantti 5 kills, .556% Whitney 5 kills .444%.

I tried to watch during a break in work, and it did not work for me. Firefox didn't work for me. I had to go to Chrome for it to work for me. I have video(starts 5-3 set 1) but it's in two parts and included is the Notre Dame vs Mississippi State when finished. If I don't have any problem connecting the two parts, should have uploaded to YT sometime today.

Firefox worked fine for me. I think it had something to do with my Adblocker Plus. Didn't have time to check out at start of match when it didn't work. Still was able to download the match video.

My company has a lot of blocking tech set up, so perhaps that was the issue. Look forward to watching the match off Youtube. You da man/woman psumaui.

I was able to go back and get start of match by screen capturing so it's uploading now and should be available shortly.
