Summary
With a highly anticipated Team USA guest on deck for next week, Tiff and Lindsay are flying solo for a quick, unfiltered recap of everything going on in the Volleyball Nations League (VNL). The hosts dive straight into the shockwaves that swept the volleyball world after Canada's historic sweep of Team USA, before analyzing how the Americans bounced back against Germany. They discuss the major roster adjustments heading into Week 2 in the Philippines, celebrating the dominant return of Olympians like Chiaka Ogbogu and Jordyn Poulter to face a tough Italian squad. Plus, the great Team USA libero debate, Nebraska players in Tanzania, and the interesting crossover that led Michigan to cancel an upcoming match.
