U.S. Women Announce Roster For Volleyball Nations League In Bangkok
Team USA has announced its active roster for the second round of Volleyball Nations League, May 29-31 in Bangkok, Thailand.
As the old saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
The U.S. Women's National Team didn't lose a single set in Japan last week, sweeping Japan, the Netherlands and Belgium over the course of three days.
Accordingly, head coach Karch Kiraly will stick with the same group for the third week of Volleyball Nations League—which, you know, makes sense.
Team USA will, again, rock with the following players in Bangkok, Thailand, May 29-31:
Setters (2)
Micha Hancock (Edmond, Oklahoma) and Carli Lloyd (Bonsall, California).
Opposites (2)
Annie Drews (Elkhart, Indiana) and Kelly Murphy (Wilmington, Illinois).
Outside Hitters (4)
Michelle Bartsch-Hackley (Champaign, Illinois), Kim Hill (Portland, Oregon), Jordan Larson(Hooper, Nebraska), Sarah Wilhite (Eden Prairie, Minnesota)
Middles (4)
Rachael Adams (Cincinnati, Ohio), Foluke Akinradewo (Fort Lauderdale, Florida), Tori Dixon (Burnsville, Minnesota) and Lauren Gibbemeyer (St. Paul, Minnesota).
Liberos (2)
Kelsey Robinson (Manhattan Beach, California) and Justine Wong-Orantes (Cypress, California).
Any player named on the original 21-player roster is eligible to be moved onto the weekly active roster.
