core good returning wonderful
I think we're returning a very good core that had a wonderful season.

He's being a good teammate. The Jose we're seeing (in matches) is the Jose I see in practice all of the time. He's a good player.
good invested missing win
This was a big win for us. It's always a good thing to be emotionally invested in a match, which was missing the other night.
argument body clean endurance good moving outside power rack takes
Take your body weight, put it on a rack and power clean it 74 consecutive times, and that's a good argument for moving to the outside (hitter position). He did that. That's an endurance feat, of course, but it also takes a little strength, too.
ball balls blocked couple everybody good hitters liked mistakes moments outside played stayed team
I think everybody played well. We had a couple of moments when we made mistakes we wouldn't have liked to have made. But we distributed the ball well, the outside hitters hit respectably, we blocked some balls and played some good team defense. We stayed pretty focused, I thought.
good wednesday
We'll have good sessions (today) and Wednesday and we'll see how he's doing.
aggressive brian fought game looked
I thought we got emotionally drained. I looked up at Brian (Beckwith) in Game 3, and he looked really drawn. Usually, he's aggressive out there. We fought through that.
concern improve
I think we can improve overall, but we're doing pretty good. Our only concern is ourselves.

Our block is getting better, but as coaches, we can never be happy or satisfied. We are just going to enjoy the rest of the weekend and prepare for USC.
depends pop saw
It all depends on the MRI. I saw him pop it back in.
jump serves serving
Jump serves are good, but only if you keep them in play. No. 1 is a serving error. There's nothing worse.

That was huge, winning that one. It was wonderful that they hung in and pulled it out.

We were very lucky tonight. We found a way to win.
game missed missing precise seen serves stop ways
We were so in system. They couldn't stop us at all. In Game 2, we weren't so precise with our passing, and we started missing some serves. In Game 3, we really started missing some serves. ... We missed some serves in ways I haven't seen out of our guys.
