Gator Volleyball 2024

Seem to be playing better
They are. Freshman Taylor Parks has been playing better than Alexis Stuckey, who is probably still not back to 100% following her devastating knee injury last year. And we still have 2 key players out for the season with injuries. It seems that this year the SEC has no elite teams, but is very deep and extremely competitive, top to bottom. Texas, who has won the last 2 national titles, has lost 3 straight conference games and is tied with Florida at 7-3 in the SEC behind 8-2 Kentucky & 7-2 Missouri. When the Gators are playing well, they can beat anyobody in the country. They just go through these stretches where they don't pass well, get out of synch, have a lot of service errors and a bunch of hitting errors. I still love watching them play.

So there goes our chances of hosting. Look at the stats, but they don't tell the full story. South Carolina had THIRTY service errors and still beat us. They outplayed us on the floor - crisper passing, better defense, fewer attack errors, plus the won almost every joust at the net and simply outhustled us. Kennedy Martin had a bad match, Taylor Parks didn't play well, Alec Rothe got so many shots blocked and hit something like -.250. Very Disappointing.
