Long Beach State Athletics!: Re: WVB 2025 Roster?

the team needs a MB & a Setter.

SHiffie may well be ok as MB if healthy, she was injured last year. no lack of motivation

but little depth and to remain a top Big West blocking team, the team needs help

setter. same thing. only option is a 6-2 right now likely, questionable if can run any sort of fast offense. the setters are not blocking setters, and experience is a factor. Collins can make solid sets as part of a 6-2.

the OH and defense may be an improvement overall with King added, we'll see but at least a lot of competition and talent there if can improve upon last year

maybe have to convert Narancich to MB

I mean if Mad Max can set, maybe she's a Nikolov, lol, just do not think so

hopeful, just seems the team needs a dynamic impactful athlete

As LBSU's primary Fall sport and lead into the start of a new year, got to say I've been disappointed in the lack of attention and effort in promoting the program.
