    Meant to type this up after the late March tournament in Austin, but lost track of time.   I'm pretty sure I wrote something like the following… And if I didn't do it here, I'll claim I did

    This is rather massive, our biggest weakness all season was 1s. Will be interesting to see who she pairs with if we don't grab anyone else.

2s and 5s only ones competitive in set 1

Edited by WBT

27-27 now for the 5s Set 1.  3 straight service errors on set point.  The dual may be over before this set ends.

Welp, 33-31 frogs.  Now we're in danger of not winning a set.

Would be nice to win a set as the #2 seed playing against #21.

Edit: I got the seedings wrong. Still would have loved to see us win a game.

We’re the #7 seed, they’re #2. Think you were looking at players #s. 

1s and 2s trying to hang in their 2nd sets

Ah ok. I am watching us play for the first time. Not sure where I got the seedings from.

Ah well, nice season.  Keep building the program.

Tough loss today showing how far we are from the top. But making the NCAA quarterfinals in the first real competition year would have seemed like a wildly optimistic prediction at the beginning of the season.

We have a strong recruiting class joining next year. And seems we have a good shot with the top player in the portal - USC's Madison White (plays in their #1 pair) just started following Texas and Metzger on social media. The program's future is bright!

So TCU is crashing the socal invitational.  I was wondering why this is always in Gulf Shores and not in Cali somewhere but Google says it was supposed to be in Huntington Beach this year before it was moved due to the fires.

Yes and will be in Huntington next year. Going forward looks like two year bids as it will move back to Gulf shores after that.

I didn't see a Beach Recruiting thread.

Leann Wise, '27, commits to Texas.

"She's a 6'0" blocker with a 8.84 TruVolley rating and moves very quick. She has notable wins at events including P1440 Junior's national championship in 2024 and the AVP East Coast Championships late 2024."

"Leann Wise is top 3 in the class and I’ve seen all ‘27s play for years. Aggressive, smart options, flys around the court. She’s going to be a force and I am not a longhorn fan whatsoever."

She's the top player in the class. Incredible kid, super smart too

Another '27 recruit, Janie McCanna.

I don't have any other commentary. 

Spiker Beach player (Huntington, CA) that got first place in the Gulf Shores 18U Open tournament that happens at the same time as the NCAAs.  It's one of the toughest junior tournaments in the nation.  She's listed at 6'

Boise State, Florida State, and South Carolina are moving to the Big 12.

 

 

I see Ella and Janie committed to us that's awesome. How often do pairs commit to the same school? Is this rare?

Sucks they're not coming to FW on the 17th. 

Madison White & Emma Grace won a little tourney in Austin the other weekend, so they may be staying together. 

Anyone know what the schedules are for the fall beach pair events in Austin over the next month?  I'm assuming it's at the Whitaker courts?

Went to TCU's fall exhibition today, got there at 2, shit was already over. Last year it was Texas & two other schools, only HCU & A&M-CC today. Plus tonight is TCU's football homecoming shit. Was the perfect fucking day for some beach.
