I see Stanford winning this match as PSU's setting and libero play seem to be a work in progress. That said, Megan Courtney is the best all around player in the game, and no one has the front line talent that PSU has right now. Not even close.
Plus I get to watch Kendall Pierce!
With that being said, there's a young gal from my school district entering her sophomore year at the University of Fl. named Carli Snyder who was just phenomenal when she was in high school.........
