Bre Payton, the Peyton Manning of MVC volleyball :D

(though I don't think UNI w/o Bre would be as pathetic as Indianapolis w/o Manning, but you're right, they probably wouldn't have won this match without her)

I never meant to imply that UNI would be mediocre without Bre. UNI VB has never been average, from what I can recall the past 18 years. With her, they are a legit Top 10 team, imo. Without her I think they'd be about the level of MSU and WSU. In all seriousness, she is as close to being to volleyball what Jackie Stiles was to MVC women's basketball as any MVC VB player I've seen (although no women's athlete in any sport will really approach what Stiles did), and I wouldn't be shocked if she doesn't get big nods for All-American setter. I saw Nebraska take apart Illinois last weekend, and I don't think the setters on those teams are as good as Bre.

my parenthetical aside wasn't in response to you, I was just clarifying my Bre/Manning analogy. 8-)
would be cool to see her on the first team AA, and I think she deserves it, but I'm not holding my breath on that one. perhaps second team again.

UNI, MSU, Creighton, WSU, and ILS have all clinched spots in the MVC tourney.
Mathematically, all 5 other teams are still alive for that final spot, but realistically it will be down to Drake and Indiana State.

UNI's next win guarantees them at least a share of the regular season conference championship, and if they beat Creighton on Friday night, they'll clinch the #1 seed.
