Minnesota in Stanford next welcome back Texas Minnesota play tomorrow Wisconson get Stanford close out day week wiconsin just took an early timeout after Tex took five of the first seven in set [Music] three Franklins it long a little bit sloppy on both sides teams really out of system at a pretty high clip setting location not quite where it was during set one fell off a little during set two both Setter have got to get back and get their hitters in good spots final couple of points of set one felt like December yeah just a bit short getting to it Wisconsin stops the Run beautiful job for Sarah Franklin not the perfect set but she found a way to make it getting inside of it just that one hand throw tip right over 15 kills for Sarah Franklin she's the leader in this match Skinner and wnis both with 11 for Texas Carlson for Skinner got underneath that one makes the call got hands up it Franklin again halter in front but it's down for Franklin backto back kills fer did a phenomenal job really disguising that outside set even though she's on the move and you expect that ball to go to the outside it looked like for a split second that she was going to the middle which caused Texas blocker to take that extra step [Music] short set SP back to Franklin why not Frankin getting a lot more Tippy with her game she's finding ways to make that work it's not always the same tip you just saw her throw one down the line this one just a little bit shorter sh you are right Franklin getting a little more shy as oning that it's out for see the frustration from her after that near [Music] Miss Kelly Sheffield has felt like serving is one of the bigger things that they need to emphasize after the last two years be aggressive the errors popped up the other night against still wants his team to go for it Con running in front of the scores table to get that had to take a swing the center alter keeps that up from out of nowhere Dam from out of nowhere a block in the middle single ter with the big hands might not be connecting but man that defense is working k out for one and have a halter later on in that point just makings look easy getting it in thatt foring a wall up front no one's getting by this one single putting it away six blocks for single first match in a full time go in the middle and O'Neal Within I don't think we've seen one hard hit so far throughout the second set it's off speed after off speed tip after tip both sides really scrambling to try to get just one good [Music] swing Carson rewards her middle for the big block well about it happens single coming out of nowhere oneon-one perfect situation you know that be right there so difficult to do that power power Mariana single made calls a big set from Charlie fer all the way on the right side of the Court uses that strength to push Franklin all the way out Lees it a little bit inside though so she can rip it inside 18 big ones for Sarah Franklin 18 kills leading this match already more than she had on Tuesday against Louisville 17 kills on over 60 [Music] swings Robinson wrapping around right back to on the bump up Carlson wanted as there Wisconson can't clear it good effort to keep the point alive right now it feels like whoever's going to win that net play up front is going to win this match you've seen so many 5050 balls meaning it really could be either team side really just ends up being who's more aggressive up front ay Carlson setting a lot of this match preseason competition with Swindle for the center spot Chad serus Robinson Deni the Net's moving and Wisconsin takes the point of the net violation good break for Wisconsin ferger smart decision again keeps Robinson going on that side it's been so effective Texas is getting a little bit too aggressive on the Block Kelly Sheffield just called for a bringer over head coach for Wisconsin called his seter over what do you think that was about probably saying now the de back row now we got to get cter Bo going on that side just as much it's Robinson serving in the front row middle spot bring Robinson back row Robinson with the one arck that series Aiden Ames saying I can do that my first college match am reading that play so beautifully watching it unfold Wisconsin in a tough situation a one arm up out a system play everyone knows his Ball's going outside and a exploded up to it closing up the scam Robinson getting a little action out of the back court too haven't seen that from her that's what makes her so good though she's versatile they can use her wherever she was a right side during the last two seasons just explosive everywhere set a little wide for halter sets R finds a spot in the back that's a beautiful set Emma halter stepping in so confident with her hands to give her right side this ball three fet offet in allows her to really attack and get on top halter the returning starting Leo she was an important DS on the 2022 National Title team when Zoe transferred in from UCLA was for Leo for Texas in that first run to the title and hter now in her Junior season she told me she's really feeling like she has a voice on this team now really becoming a great vcal leader for this squad Franklin out of the back row Franklin's so good from the back court because she really hits those seams well whether it's between the right back and middle back defender or left and middle back she's constantly going for the [Music] corners not a better out ass system hitter in the country is there I don't think so no I mean things that she can do with maybe junk ball or tough ball to hit so impressive at the sends it off the block down the tape and into our hands who wants it want you want it we go ripped my suit on that and here we go set it up doubles don't exist anymore Conor come on I should have gone out of system take it a back rip like Franklin RI it all the way outside to Franklin I think you got the strength for it You' been working out I stretch Texas by three in set three ersal to serve first to three STS wins it back in her heels a little bit slightly hesitant on that play that ball almost in her lap just had to take one step to make it sometimes those plays as a Defender kind of happen in slow motion you kind of expect just to go right at it that slight hesitation causes the ball to fall sh deep thought 1410 in set three approach the S you Frank oneon-one that will happen every single time trying to put a hole in that for she's hit the ball so hard you see that perfect pass though allows Texas's middle to stay with Wisconsin that leaves their FR one-onone she was yelling before she even hit that ball halfway into her approach he said I know where this is going just missed it also just love to see that confidence from a player like that you know she's going up she expects to get a kill every single time with some of that Charisma you were talking about exactly same can be said for Matty Skinner who serves here for long tojust in midair for wenis hung in there dig to swing to a Skinner dig W right in front of pbrer and or how about that shot Jenna W brought inside the defense for Wisconsin moves with her that allows that sideline right open just a good Chip Shot from a veteran player see this hand she finish her pinky right down to the floor that allows that Chip Shot Emily this is the first time all match somebody is led by Five Points it tells you how back and forth it is Tex really taking control here in set three Franklin finds the donut another good shot from Franklin this time bearing up her attack a little bit more set three has gotten a lot more shy throwing in those tips and rolls there it is there she is got a little shoty misconnect in the middle Carlson W it single T no dice this is where Texas has to regain control get that first ball side out here send that lead goes up with two and puts it away one is just such a crafty attacker anytime that set isn't perfect it seems like she knows exactly what to do with the play she's not always just hard RI she'll use those two hand shoot take one hand thrown a tip or that roll shot as well it's probably her biggest evolution in year one in Texas don't you think definitely I mean she used to be such a power attacker and now really rounding out that game with other shots alter up her body on the Dick Robinson didn't get a touch Point Texas back up by five good opportunity to run Robson on that really close over to the right side of the Court fer just not leading her enough to allow her to snap down and get it in so a timeout for Wisconsin Kelly Sheffield took that early timeout so now he's out of timeouts with his team chasing five Texas threatening to go ahead two one Paris Games Team USA just finished with a silver medal after their gold in the last games in the 2020 games both teams were well represented out of the middle the middle of the tournament Texas chako was terrific I meano has been so phenomenal throughout his career it looks like we really saw that during this Olympics helping them Senor Lauren Carini Dana Ry she was part of the 2021 National Championship team playing in the middle for team us right now so exciting for that program to have not just one but two players on this Olympic roster in this tournament Al together you see Catherine PL multiplayer of the year for Stanford as well in the mix just a run that this team was able to do I think coming into that tournament no one expected them to be in that gold medal match and they found ways to win when it happened and really showed you the grit and depth that that team had to get all the way there cool part about that they go to Paris win the silver medal you'll see some of those players domestically in the Pro leagues here in the United States in the winter will be part of the league one volleyball team in Austin starting in January 2025 you'll see Carini in Madison I mean so exciting for the growth of volleyball

will be playing for League one and we've seen DF just had their first season inaugural season as well and some some big names in there like Betty Cruz who played in the Olympics just a phenomenal Time Country big swing that a held her ground up this is Swindle setting again for Texas Frank hter is there retreats crashes in now a free ball to Texas AES on the slide BLS play takes is outlasting the other teams and finding ways to recycle balls and get play so if you hit that ball right in the block that coverage has got to be there to get a second and maybe third swing because you have to play that kind of defense against a team like Wisconsin Michelle was fine on the huddles sure was Conor and Kelly Sheffield telling his team get off the emotional wave we're scoring on pretty much everything except for the one he really wants more middle involvement but of course he got to put Charlie in a better situation there in the set to be able to activate those medals and that comes all down to passing and really transition play can they get fer up at the net to do so to get the midd involved fer out here Carly Anderson in CC Crawford in front we saw CER in the first match against L situationally for blocking getun it to Franklin and crawf up the middle side basic here TI to I have a quick and simple fix for you guys Bish the problem so just down to support him about to trying to

it's been all day one is just continuing to fire time and time again in difficult situations if the set's not perfect she's finding ways toore so well 15 kills for wi she has four in this set she is the team high for Texas over Skinner at 11 and a service a as Texas cruising toward the finish line on the service pressure from Carlson there's that service pressure that Texas is known for just picking a part Ser receives time and time again Miley Chan into the match for a first time this year Wisconsin in the back row impression of the game she's in server SE puts it away phenomenal pass SMY Chan stepping in a fresh it can be really intimidating in this kind of environment against the number one team she looked cool pal and collected herf C allowed that to go sold out crowd number one
