We Love Seeing Coverage (And the More Accurate and Clear, the Better)

Both WisSports.Net and the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel wrote stories about this weekend's Thomas More Milwaukee Lutheran Joust.

As you know, we love seeing volleyball coverage anywhere we can find it, but the MJS story did contain at least one factual error and, in our opinion, didn't really clarify an important point it was trying to make (of course, we'll probably be just as muddy in our description below).

First, the factual error: Watertown lost to Middleton, not Pius XI, in pool play on Friday. Now the point of clarification: The specific change mentioned in the story was to switch from a pure 6-2 with both setters (Hanna Cahoon and Kaley Jacobson) coming from the back row to a modified 5-1 with Cahoon setting the back row rotations then subbing out for Jacobson to set the three front-row rotations.

Clear as mud? Oh well, we tried. Be sure to leave your Joust insights (or thoughts from other tournaments) at the WisSports.Net forum.
