This game has got to be ONE of the best NCAA championship games. Watching this game made me wonder why the U.S. does NOT have an INDOOR professional league. I know there was one in the past and did not last. However, it is worth another shot. I think it can work now.

This match showcased why Penn State won 4 straight titles. Sure they had the heavy hitters but they also had VERY STRONG liberos and defensive specialists that allowed those hitters to get their opportunities. Goes to show you that defense wins championships!

There is a professional league, but it is international. I say scrap the WNBA and create an American WNVA. This match had 2 current olympians (Hooker & Hodge) plus an alternate (Glass).

To be down 0-2 and win the game is awesome and goes to show what a tough and talented team PSU is and still are. This is by far the best match I seen on tv. This is how a #1 and #2 teams should play for all the marbles! What a game!!!

5:24 Kisner's dig was so insane, even the legend Karch Kiraly made an "OH!" sound. This is why she is my favorite libero of all time, and why I love that my jersey number is 19. Other great digs at 0:46 and 1:01. D'Errico is also fantastic, covering all of Hooker's tips, and she and Roberta Holehouse were the best liberos of Penn State. Great game all around, thanks to the liberos and defensive specialists.

I can't count how many times I've watched volleyball from 10-15 years ago and said, "you just don't see this any more because of all the rule changes." All of the girls that played this final definitely showed that volleyball is a lot more than being tall and powerful.

Let's not lose sight of what's most important here. With all due respect to Hooker, who is an excellent volley-baller, Penn State came back from a 0-2 deficit and ran the table for a 3rd straight national championship. That is an AWESOME achievement for ANY NCAA school to accomplish, especially given the collegiate volleyball talent on both the men's and women's teams in this country. Outstanding, Lady Lions. You've made the whole Nittany Nation super proud. WE ARE-PENN STATE!

Texas had an amazing team with a lot of talented seniors...they really gave Penn St. a run for it...every point was a battle...could u imagine if Texas won 3-0...that couldn't happen...too easy! Would be boring in fact but that would go to show why Penn St. is the champion. This game had everything that a title match should be...

@spashley10210 finally someone KNOWS the game penn state was successful because of alisha glass. not to take away from megan or ari and blair but when you have a hitter as talented as megan, its much easier. alisha was a talented setter because she developed a crisp connection with her hitters and she could feel where the block was going and move the ball the opposite way. penn state is struggling to match the IQ and talent of alisha among moydell and carpenter.

@volleyballfanatic1 I beg your pardon! Megan Hodge and Alisha Glass were sophomores when Penn State started their back-to back-to back championship streak. Who's to say next year's team can't or won't do the same? Winner focus on what they WANT, not what they don't want. Living in Austin, I got SERIOUS braggin' rights on these Longhorns, and you better believe they're still talking about this loss. Fight On, State! For the Glory!

some people may think that penn state will lose its fire next year, but i beg to differ. the new freshmen that are coming in 2010 are amazing players. i believe that the BIGGEST loss of penn is not necessarily Megan, but Alisha. the new girls coming in can hit with the best of them, but its whether or not Marika Racibarskas (Soph) or Mikinzie Moydell (Fresh) will be able to keep up setting wise at this level.

I'm going out for volleyball at my high school, now that I can do sports and don't have to babysit after school. I haven't touched a volleyball in awhile, and want to do varsity since ill be a senior in the fall. I'm probably going to buy a volleyball over the summer, and do some basics, and hopefully find a net somewhere and practice my serves. I want to learn how to do a stronger overhand since the one I do now is so sloppy and inconsistent. Watching this, makes me feel amateurish. >.> Tips?

I never heard of "athletic sportsmanship" before. She actually just tries getting her team fired up, Dorton is the one flaying her body all over the court every point.

@livbgluvbg1234 always try to see where your opponents are and play into the holes in the defense. I had success varying my serves from short in the middle to long into the two back corners. that way they don't know what to expect :) takes a bit of practice of course. also try to always let others know when you're going for the ball, helps to avoid confusion and the ball dropping between two players. hope it helps don't know how experienced you are already but if you have questions just ask
