Agreed and I wasn't referring to the 2026 team. Looking at the commitment trending I was projecting ahead 2 or 3 years. Hopefully they are planning to utilize our 2028 commit as a right side hitter and not a middle. Is Natalie going after the best available players? She made what I thought was a troubling comment in a interview in which she said she doesn't recruit the higher level players. Why not? Cal Poly does and the last time I looked they are still staying in the Big West.

Programs need to get the best available players and there are plenty of "undersized" players that are a lot more productive then a lot of taller ones. Of course you would like to have 6-5 players that are athletic and multi- dimensional but there are not many of those. As an example of two BW players that come to mind is six foot flat Kash at LBSU that was first team all big ten in her lone year after LBSU and currently sub six foot Travis from UCSB now at Wisconsin. She is picked by many to be a starting pin at that top 5 school. Of course size maters if you have everything else. Previous Message
Interesting that all 4 of our 2027 recruits are under 6'0 and that trend is continuing with our first 2028 commitment. I'd like to think our program going into the near future can at least remain competitive in the Big West. Not sure being the shortest team in the conference is the way to go. I was in favor of Natalie getting the head coach position not because I thought she was going to develop into a great coach but because I was terrified of Mr Slitheran and Mr. Apple hiring the next WVB coach. That thought was to awful to comprehend. Time will tell. Previous Message
Reagan Williams, Mater Dei, MB/OH has committed. She's only 5'11 now but has two more years of high school to grow and get better.
