May 3May 3 27-27 now for the 5s Set 1. 3 straight service errors on set point. The dual may be over before this set ends.
May 3May 3 Ava & Vivian battled, but couldn’t close. Horrific serving. Viv is a freshman, she’ll be at 3s next year.
May 3May 3 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. Edited May 3May 3 by UTEE97

May 3May 3 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!
May 3May 3 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.
May 4May 4 TCU up 2-1, about to be 2-all. Will likely come down to the decider at 1s. Their whole program was set up for this scenario.
May 4May 4 Froggies break the LA stranglehold, Spanish Olympians handle business. They’ll look a lot different next year, but flags fly forever.

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.

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.
June 15Jun 15 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
June 17Jun 17 https://www.instagram.com/_janiemccannavball_/?hl=en Another '27 recruit, Janie McCanna. I don't have any other commentary. Edited June 17Jun 17 by 10SNE1 Name

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'
July 28Jul 28 Um, I’ve been saying for awhile that Ava is too skinny to be an effective top-level player. Spoiler
September 24Sep 24 I see Ella and Janie committed to us that's awesome. How often do pairs commit to the same school? Is this rare?
October 2Oct 2 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.
October 10Oct 10 That’s Madison & Emma on left, so certainly appears they’ll be our top pair. Sends Katie Hashman to 2, we shall see who she runs with.
October 17Oct 17 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?
October 18Oct 18 Are you referring to next weekend (24th-25th) against TCU (& LSU later)? Definitely at Whitaker, no times released yet. If you're looking for other tourneys in Austin, they're here. https://atxbeach.volleyballlife.com/events
October 18Oct 18 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.
