Reader R.A. was disappointed that the Gophers “choked” (R.A.’s term, not mine) in the 1st set against Texas (the Gophs led 23-20) just like they did vs Baylor when they lost a set they led 24-20. R.A. also feels that Samedy needs to be less predictable with her attack angles, to reduce getting blocked. And agrees that Rollins will not be missed.
Reader G.C. made some of the same points re losing sets you lead late, and agrees with my observation that we have to find a way to get more production out of our Middle Hitters.
