Caroline Kahle Interview now Available on YouTube

 Got a chance to have a SUPER conversation with Sophomore OH Caroline Kahle tonight and I just love how she answered my half dozen questions or so.  Today on the bus ride over to Huntsville, I tried to be as intentional as I could with chatting individually with all the players working my way in conversation from the back of the bus to the front.  A few were sacked out in a nap and so I didn't get to talk with all of them, but I'll catch them at breakfast or around the lobby of the hotel.  A lot of relationships have to be forged and trust built as we all begin travelling together.

The Kahle interview was followed up with a chat with Jayden Flynn - you'll see that I have my #InLikeFlynn T-shirt rocking for both of the sessions.  The Flynn interview will go up on Friday night.  I'll also announce it in this space.

For now, enjoy the incredible chat with Caroline and I hope to see many of our fans in Huntsville this weekend for our three matches.

One thing to note:  NONE OF THE MATCHES ARE ON TV.  Originally, it was thought that the Sam Houston / SFA match on Saturday afternoon would be on ESPN+, but Sam Houston is NOT broadcasting it.  So, the radio here at the blog is the ONLY media for all three of our matches this weekend.

Here's the link to my chat with Kahle: Interview with Caroline Kahle on August 29

Preseason Chat with Head Coach Debbie Humphreys

 I've been able to check out practice a few times in this past week leading up to the scrimmage at Noon on Saturday, August 24.  I'll have a season preview up in this space next week and we'll also begin talking to some of the veterans in advance of next weekends' tournament matches in Huntsville.  For now, my plan is to chat with Jayden Flynn and Caroline Kahle at some point before making that trip.  To get us started in this space for 2024, check out these 10 minutes with Coach Humphreys.  Our focus is discussing the process of making a schedule of matches, building a practice routine centered around our large contingent of new freshman and communicating with young players about opportunities for playing time.

I look forward to getting a rare shot back on public address for the scrimmage since there is no media and mainly and just super excited to be back in the gym and get a first true look at the 2024 squad in competition mode. Hope to see you Saturday in Shelton Gym at 12 PM.
