I'd heard that Sarah wanted a coaching change but Kelley was unwilling (since she married their coach). That may not be the whole story though.

I wonder this too!

I believe receiving balls (not hard driven) with open hands is fine so long as its not a double.

true, but it takes two to tango. Sponcil is the best setter in the world, bar none. She is among the best 2-3 in the world in chasing down seeminglly ungettable balls. She is among the top 5 pure defenders in the world in serving. But you have to have a quality Big to get anywhere.... she has to figure out how to get back with Kelly and send Jordan packing, until another Big comes around with world class talent since Alix is taken.

@@larrydunn4626 haven't seen Alix playing??? Don't have to have a quality big. Look Sander and Crabb to the finals. Look at Qatar 🇶🇦 incredible athletes. But yeah I get the physics. I used to play against Patterson at the Salt Lake City Classic. We got cheated on game point we hade against him and Steve Vale. I'm 6' my partner 5'10 beating up bigs back in the day😉

@@musicboise208 Alix is recovering from shoulder surgery.

@@larrydunn4626 Cannon just dominated Cheng, why would Sponcil want to get back with her?

@@larrydunn4626 who is Alix's partner??

Unfortunately her performance was terrible. I would love to go back and count how many times she got blocked.

@@TheDcrocks1 Sure, she played badly, but to be that emotional about it is highly unusual.

@@umrobe62 true.
