Pretty simple solution. Find ball control specialists that keep you in system. 

Surprise, surprise that Texas unstoppable with Fleck and Halter. 

And next year we just replace Fleck with Carissa Barnes.

Ain’t exactly the Rose Bowl..but, ain’t it beautiful?

Let's be honest, nothing will ever top VY's run for the Roses as a Texas fan. But always beautiful to win a National Title 🤘

I’m really late on this as I don’t really follow volleyball except very casually but this was absolutely true.  My son is one of the group pictures here.  Alabama won that match and the Alabama team went and celebrated with them.

Congratulations grandpa.

I was at that game.  I was 30.  I realized I would never attend a better sporting event in my life from the terms of confluence of combatants, stage, what was on the line, outcome and personal meaning to me.  That said every single one of these is something to be cherished.  Athletes work their fucking asses off, most of them in anonymity and to see it come together like this...well that's just fucking awesome.

I couldn't be more impressed with Halter. I think she was really the most valuable player for Texas this year. 

You knew Texas had 1 elite level defensive/ball control specialist in Fleck but Halter ended up being just as good. To think she's only a freshman too.

100% this. Though VY and the CWS championship (the whole tourney) might be be about the same, but yeah the dedication and sacrifice and the effort to be the best… wow.

Congratulations to Texas. Well done.

I would have preferred Pitt in the finals against Texas but, can’t always get what you want.

Would have sweep that ass too

I don’t know man, i hear you but it’s different. I love amateur athletics, the big 2 are awesome but seeing student athletes in sports that are exciting to watch but without a path to riches and still seeing them give it all, cry in victory and defeat is something else.  That’s a lot of hard work and time and schedule demands and seeing that level of excellence from well kids is inspiring.

Yep, this feels so much more "amateur," in the best possible sense.  These girls have professional opportunities and the Olympics and they still stick around.  And graduate.

Also, how in the world was there indisputable evidence on that Molly Phillips touch? 

I didn't understand the call at all. I don't think it was even touched but there definitely wasn't enough evidence to overturn. 

Narrator: there wasn't indisputable evidence

That happens when you sweep.

Yeah had until 9:30 blocked off. If it had gone to 4/5 we maybe don’t see anything past the dog pile

Love the Hawaiians putting on this celebratory flower crowns. Love seeing multicultural celebrations on this team

I remember Kalani Napoleon and the baseball team in 2002. We clearly need to recruit more Hawaiians.
