Rhodes likely out for the year

Standing at 6’2″ out of Waco, Texas, Rhodes started 21 matches as a freshman in 2017. This season in 30 sets of play, she averaged per set numbers of 1.97 kills on a .252 mark, 1.23 blocks (most on the team) and 0.43 digs. Her final match came at Nebraska though, which following a loss put the team at 6-4. In the past weekend without her, the Cyclones went 1-2 with losses to unranked Iowa and Syracuse, although they did sweep (RV) Wyoming.
However, filling in for her in the Wyoming victory was Hart, who appeared in all three sets and had five blocks. She was then injured though and didn’t play in the two losses. In total for the season, she has notched per set numbers of 1.67 kills on a .265 clip and 1.22 blocks (second on the team).
The Cyclones are still left with Grace Lazard (2.56 kps, .330, 1.19 bps, 0.81 dps, 0.31 aces per set) at the position, but they obviously need a second and have no other healthy options on their roster. Beyond that, they’ll be filling players in from other positions such as opposite Candelaria Herrera (1.32 kps, .215, 0.56 bps).
Herrera was successful against Syracuse with nine kills (.389) and nine blocks, but struggled against Iowa with just four kills (.167) and two blocks.
Sitting at 7-6, Iowa State will start up Big 12 action this week at West Virginia on Wednesday night before meeting #12 Baylor at home on Saturday.
That's it... I'm calling for a permanent ban! (Or at least as long as it takes for my heart to start beating normally again)
:p

Yeesh, I thought there were more Iowa State women's volleyball fans on this board..... :p
What the hell!
That's not funny...OK it's pretty funny actually.
Needed to give it a "made ya look".
Here's the ironic part: when other people used to do shit like this in the past, I hated it. Not sure what happened?
Fuck off asshole. Onto the ignore list i guess. Seriously fuck you. And your wife. And your mother and brother too.
Whats it gonna take to stop this kind if bullshit?
LMAO...your an asshole. But it did take some thinking and warp sense of humor to come up with that.
Now that was funny, scared me for a moment but damn funny. B)

Relax.
So the Sticky pulled your chain. No reason to get all bent and go off about his family.

Dark humor to be sure... but hardly worth this kind of response. It was immediately obvious upon opening the post that this was a "joke". Seems like the kind of thing that "buddies" do to one another, which is why Sticky did it here. Hopefully we can all recognize the intention and "be OK" with it. I freaked out when I saw it, too... but when I saw it was a joke, I was able to laugh it off. Hopefully you'll be able to do the same (not that I would presume to tell anyone how to feel).

A little bit of "Over-kill"...
