1. They spent spring break in Hawaii training and playing NCAA permitted spring scrimmages. As best I could determine, they defeated Chaminade and lost to U. of Hawaii, a squad that is usually a ranked team.

2. ND added two more recruits for 2024, middle blocker Grace Langer of Colorado and right side hitter Kailyn Greene-Gordon of New Jersey. This brings the freshman class to a total of six, all of them front row players. The odds are that at least a couple of them will have an immediate impact. All of them should improve the team's competitiveness in practice. One of them, middle blocker Mallory Bohl of Michigan, was a January admit and is already practicing with the team.

3. I also learned that ND had earlier added a fourth commit to the 2025 class, libero Maya Evens of California. She joins setter Maya Baker of California and two Texans, right side hitter Chichi Nnaji and outside hitter Sophia Thornburg. California and Texas produce many talented players.

4. I can't speak to the quality of these recruits because the sites that provide rankings are pay sites. I am assuming that Coach Rockwell knows what she needs and can evaluate well. The relative success of the 2024 and 2025 classes will tell us much about her level of recruiting because these will be the first two recuiting classes that will be completely hers...
