Mostly retired. Still cover Wisconsin volleyball for Wisconsin State Journal. Seamhead.
Should be soon, maybe this week coming up. Only 2 finalists and she is going to college.

Champion is still playing with Puerto Rican team, currently in Mexico. Just played against US team with college grads and pros. Last month was in Thailand (I think) in same event as Dana and Sarah. And Champion is just 15. Teams have different size classes. Badgers have big ‘25 & ‘26 classes.

Trinity is working her way back, upping her practice activity. Not ready to play yet and she’s got a crowd in front of her.

To be honest I didn’t notice from my spot in the Uecker seats at Fiserv. She’s not going to play this season.

I think it's Champion or nobody. At least until the transfer portal.

Still trying to arrange visit. She was in Thailand for a time and now competing in tournament in Mexico. Complicated scheuling.

She practiced this morning. They were off Thursday and Friday so video on Friday would’ve been old.

Ouch. Unfortunately, out of my hands. Hopefully, someone who can will fix it.

No, she is not going to visit now. Things change in recruiting.

Don't know exactly when but Ireland Real and Decelise Champion are expected to visit sometime in the next month or so.

I'm with you in spirit. Maybe I'll try to post more here and see if more people make the move. But at this point in life, I'm trying to do less social media (and work in general), not more. But if X disappeared I wouldn't be unhappy.

Don’t use bluesky often. Not many volleyball followers. Chicken and egg thing, I guess. Doesn’t look like any commitments in near future. Sounds like at least a couple kids want to visit before deciding. So nothing till after August 1.
