Moving the discussion
some comments from Monday
Will know more this afternoon about Taylor’s elbow.
Shoji back tonight, at practice Wednesday
it looks like setting will be between Higgins and Iosia, only because Koelsch is taking a lot of reps on the outside. she is still setting a little.
It’s a tossup between Burns and Castilo as the second middle. burns is very athletic but her footwork needs work.

Re: Taylor.
The 6-foot-4 Honolulu native was selected as one of 12 athletes for the Pan American Cup last July. Fifth nationally in points per set last season, the senior boasts a motion that’s as pure as the white sand in her home state. She leads a Rainbow Wahine team eager to show last fall’s sweep of Penn State in the regional semifinal was no fluke. Honors: 2015 AVCA All-America second team; 2015 Big West Player of the Year
Taylor out for weekend See new thread
