Stanford’s blocking is craaaaazy good

[@valentinag3770]

Yeah it’s easy when you’re 6’6 😂😂

[@tenzinchang6620]

@@valentinag3770 I know this comment is old but it's like to add that it's not just that though. It's not often you see the middle get out to the pin as well as Standford.

[@valentinag3770]

tenzin chang that’s true

[@jay_r.us2]

Their blocking has always been good with a lot of players, in the 2018 semifinals against BYU middle hitter Alade blocked at least 14 hits some even back to back😭🤯

[@hannahjune5367]

Their blocking isn’t that good, it’s just that MN hits into the block all the time

[@madisonlucas1216]

Meghan McClure takes an amazing swing the commentators: "Plummer with that pass and that swing from last set..."

[@margaritabeshkova9253]

If your over 21 take a shot every time the commentators say anything about Kathryn Plummer. Absolutely love her she’s such an inspiration and my favourite player of all time. But if you want a drinking game it’s right here😂

[@mikkeladamsen8380]

Okay. Kathryn Plummer is very, very good but chill out fam. Seems like the commentators can't talk about anything else lol

[@oscorpio1365]

Mikkel Adamsen the only other person they have to talk about is Morgan, it’s not their fault everyone else boring!

[@haxicle5378]

oScorpio bruh what about Jenna Gray

[@potatoprsk]

Pretty much the entire stanford team is being talked about lol wym it's only Plummer

[@allysmith5639]

Mikkel Adamsen she’s just that outstanding bruh

[@oscorpio1365]

​@@potatoprsk im srryyy i forget about their amazing senior class plus meghan and taylor, but what i mean is the commentators will comment on plummer and hence the most since they are probably their most important players, obviously everyone else will get their respected headlines

[@angelfish6865]

i love stanford vb but can they talk about the other team like geez

[@VincesArtDesigns]

49:32 this is why I can’t stand Paul! Megan meclure just got a beautiful kill and he raves about Kathryn Plummer’s pass? I mean we get it YOU LOVE PLUMMER! I do too I think she’s incredible but like it’s sounds like your in love with her! Also 49:40

[@oscorpio1365]

Well receiving is harder than hitting, but Megan does get the attention she deserves when it comes to receiving and defending

[@shaybovkoon7009]

PineTreeLooms a pass sets the set and hit in place

[@jankielty6599]

how did they not talk about 1:01:15?? that was an amazing swing!!

[@zsofijakab9830]

Megan is so underrated 😥

[@drugstorecowboy1]

Jenna Grey is so fun to watch

💀💀💀

[@liampotatoe23]

To this day, I wonder if Holly Rowe knows what she’s talking about when it comes to volleyball. When she was interviewing Hugh McCutcheon after the second set, she was like “Seems like you went to a little more tempo in that set...” 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@anthonydiaz5657]

For a sec I thought she had gotten married?!!! I was like when did this happen! 😭

[@richmondlaureno5130]

I am excited to see Plummer in the Olympics

[@ajollypanda4175]

I thought she wasnt going to the olympics? did kirach change his mind?

[@rudicandaza3692]

She has to improve her passing by leaps and bounds though. Serving at the Olympics is on another level.

[@elitevolleyball7969]

Barring any injuries from the outsides of USA, I doubt that she's going to Tokyo. Her best shot at a slot is at Opposite but Drews, Lowe and even Thompson have more valuable experience than her.

[@blickblick7723]

Elite Volleyball No way she’s taking Drew’s spot. That girl is a beast

[@elitevolleyball7969]

@@blickblick7723 Oh I know. Drews is easily Top 3 Best Opposites in the world now, maybe just behind Egonu and Boskovic.

[@scoobydoobydoo8069]

These commentators... goodness gracious. Not only can they not stop talking about Kathryn Plummer (neither can I though) but they just sound like they have favoritism for Stanford. Stanford’s great, but when Minnesota’s libero made that great save with a pancake, they said how “Morgan Hentz doesn’t have to resort to an emergency pancake bc she’s just so fast” like chillllll

[@walterlegere1403]

Morgan Hentz isn't human! Her reaction time to the volleyball is "other-worldly" and at Libero she is amazing and has been for her entire colligate career. Just watch her and you'll understand just how amazing that young lady is! Yes, Minnesota did a great job but they were no match for the juggernaut that was Stanford. Kat Plummer is just in a league by herself. She's 6' 6" and a killer! She has been for her entire life! When she's on she is virtually unstoppable and very few can touch her... just the way it is.

[@kennedymoua1385]

i’m honestly not really mad that minnesota lost bc they improved a lot they also made this game like last year they lost to oregon and all our hearts fell bc of that but they were so gold this year and maybe next year they can make this game again but make the championship ship game

[@dianaguzman9168]

it wouldn't hurt to talk about Minnesota players without comparing them to Stanford all the time.....it's like giving someone a backhanded compliment.

[@imashtonjohnson]

NCAA Championships I NEED a replay of the 2018 regional semifinal match between MN and Oregon. After all these years still no full match anywhere and that was a classic! I know a lot of people that would love to watch that match again!

[@thechameleon808]

Both teams will lose a lot of their star players after this season, talk about rebuilding for Stanford after Plummer, Fitzmorris, Grey, McClure, and Hentz. Minnesota loses Hart, K. Miller, not sure if Pittman is returning for 2020, since she was a redshirt junior. They have Samedy returning for 2020.

[@rachellee9514]

I heard Stanford had the top recruiting class last year so hopefully the current freshmans are gonna step up and fill the holes well

[@thechameleon808]

@@rachellee9514 I hope so too. Kipp, the #1 recruit in the country, shared playing time with McClure in the early part of the season and then it became just McClure. I think because McClure was a better passer and defender. Kipp, needs to work on her passing and defense in the off season for sure!

[@thechameleon808]

Don't feel sorry for Minny, they bring in #1 recruiting class in 2020 with #1 Player and recruit in the country, Taylor Landfair. They bring in a dynamic setter in Shaffmaster, the #3 recruit in the country in Jenna Wenaas, and the best libero in the 2020 class in my opinion.

[@rachellee9514]

@@thechameleon808 yea I very much thought so too .McClure is a great all-around player. She's only a junior so luckily they have her to play the leadership role next year. Kipp has a lot of potential as well as Berty when I saw her in a couple matches. Not sure how the future starting libero and setter (Selina Xu?) will be, but we'll just have to wait and see.

[@ajollypanda4175]

@@thechameleon808 I believe kipp was #2

[@citizenshipp4152]

At 19:00 Gates previewed the exact same kill that she used to hit the championship match-winner against Nebraska. Love her game.

[@myerklamb8529]

I love that she got the final kill to win the championship and McClure did the year prior. All the Stanford hitters played with essentially no fear the past couple seasons

[@austinhebert1713]

can they talk about something else besides plummer

[@policeboyweewoo]

austin hebert lol they do sometimes and they talk about her a lot and they need to talk about the other players more but it’s hard to when Plummer is such a great player

[@prexcysicuya7477]

Or heinz

[@jakobebryant2757]

I’d say Formico as libero, McClure and Kipp outside(possible DS for kipp) Xu setter, Fidelak opposite, Campbell and Vicini middles. Unless any good freshman come in

[@kyleighpatrick9969]

jakobebryant27 I don’t think kipp would be a ds. they wouldn’t waste her height or her hitting skills on being a ds.

[@truevoice1002]

Kyleigh Patrick i think he meant a ds what would go in for kipp

[@osooso9566]

jakobebryant27 McClure should be Libero Formico should just stay being a ds

[@policeboyweewoo]

@@osooso9566 but they need McClure's hitting

[@osooso9566]

Lainey Tsai birdie is a more powerful hitter, plus formico would choke under pressure

[@ryunamekazi6443]

adanna rollins has been a poor passer all season and offensively not doing it. Not really a 6 rotation outside hitter in my opinion.

[@blickblick7723]

Exactly, she needs to be replaced ! She can’t pass and she only gets kills against less competitive teams. She’s not good to me .

Can someone tell me why the liberos do servings?

[@ElvenWarrior17]

Liberos serve for one of the middles in college. Professionally they dont serve though.

[@chloereese97]

28:57 they’re talking about how she’s 6’ and undersized as a hitter when i’m literally a 5’4 left wing spiker 😳 i guess it doesn’t look like i have a future in college volleyball considering i’m a sophomore in highschool lmaoo

[@shawnaterry8222]

Girl same, my coach said the only way I would play in college is as a ds/libero

[@ccstars7423]

I’m confused on why the liberos are closer to the net? Don’t they usually play middle back?

[@brynnkohler4084]

It's called defensive coverage. If the setter ends up taking the first contact, the libero is the one who often bumps to the attacker.

[@katiepickett6853]

Maybe for some teams but like for Stanford a). Hentz covers so much it doesn’t matter b). It makes the liberos handle much of the cross court heat

[@ccstars7423]

Ohhh I totally forgot about cross court hits lol and yea setting the hitter makes sense

its so unfair for the depender. you guys always praise the setter of stanford. she can set the ball because of the good pass. as a setter nothing ordenary she doin.

[@addyschultz3472]

She barely EVER doubles and has amazing location and tempo not to mention her blocking but you also have to take in account her choices because you don’t see that as much from just watching😊

[@schianneaustin8186]

She is a phenominal setter. As a setter myself it is so hard to not double and she blocks and she has a very high volleyball IQ. With that being said I can understand no noticing all of that if you don't see her as much.

[@blickblick7723]

Exactly, they always praise her but never fail to say how almost every ball she gets is coming right at her. In my opinion Sydney Hilley should be getting the hype. She’s so good.

[@blickblick7723]

Addy Schultz She also sets the ball tight a lot. Of course her locations are good if the passes are perfect
