The Side Out Society Podcast

It was an exciting week in women’s college volleyball! We’re down to just two undefeated teams — Nebraska and Texas — but the weekend was full of upsets and statement wins. We dive into Penn State’s rollercoaster weekend against USC and UCLA, Illinois’ surprise win over Purdue, and Baylor’s five-set stunner over TCU.

Then we shift to the pro side: AU Pro Volleyball announced its Week One captains — Brittany Abercrombie, Bethania De La Cruz-Mejía, Madi Kingdon Rishel, and Morgan Hentz — and we share quick bios on each of them. Plus, Team USA announced its first-ever U17 National Team, an exciting step for the future of the program.

Whether you’re following the chaos in the Big Ten or tracking the growth of the pro game, we’ve got you covered.
