VB: @ Virginia - 11/01/24 Match Info

Also loved the clips middle of 3rd set of the SMU - Pitt match that SMU won......what was that all about? I guess a message to the viewers that this Pitt team can be beaten......but it ain't happening tonight by Virginia!
I believe they also failed to mention that Pitt had beaten them 3 days before that in a sweep

I looked up the female out of curiosity after they showed the broadcasters in the booth, she (Madison Morey) was on UVA’s team just last year as the libero, but had to retire after suffering multiple head injuries.
The multiple head injuries checks out… respectfully.
 
The match is over but I think the female announcer is still talking about how Virginia can get some momentum and make a run.
And she also said they were in every set.Not the game I saw.Pitt might have taken the foot off the pedal a bit in the third, but this game was over.I liked their enthusiasm,got to them that.

Holy cow…she said that? Didn’t I read here that we were up 20-2 in the first set? I guess the Chicago White Sox were in a pennant race this year too. Lol.
 
I think those announcers knew about Virginia volleyball, but did nothing to prepare and knew nothing about Pitt or anything outside the UV volleyball bubble. They were the complete opposite of the guy who called one of west coast games earlier this season (maybe UCSB). That guy was prepared to talk for hours about Pitt volleyball, the University of Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh, in general.
 
She was terrible, but to be fair the accnx announcers are typically just local radio people doing an extra gig and some recent college grad with various experiences as the color person. You are going to get a lot of varying degrees of quality. It’s like that for all of these college networks that don’t make the main channel. This girl was probably some 22 year old that was a deer in headlights.
