Semifinal for Maeliss Trapeau in the 800m

Maeliss Trapeau through to the women’s 800m semis!

Werro and Hurta Klecker tie in their 800m heat!

Oh no, Maloney out

Vadlejch, Nadeem, and Chopra all struggling

Just taking a look at the knockout out bracket, and we take on I thought it was gonna be … (not sure why)

Oh it’s for sure doable for him to retire and return after a couple of years (or sooner, like Egonu), but I wouldn’t consider him to be “young” for volleyball standards (more like in the middle) Yeah, Hoag is still playing for Canada at 33 (didn’t formally make an announcement, but I assumed he retired quietly), and he’s still swinging rockets like he did when he first started What I’m trying to say is that I think with Plotnytskyi, he’s not absent from the squad in a sense of you know “big players that could make a significant impact” because well, he’s retired. With Lavia, he injured his hand and missed out on these Championships. But I realized since then that you didn’t know about him retiring, so…

He’s 28

You mean Plotnytskyi? Pretty sure he retired from the Ukrainian NT, only playing club volleyball now.

No auto Q’s in the men’s 200m…

Audrey Leduc qualifies for the women’s 200m semifinals!

Subbing Elgert in, Lewis can’t be serious I hope it’s more of an experience type of thing rather than him actually thinking he’d make a difference.

Alright, that’s enough from me. Man, this team

And now McCarthy with two aces in a row

take the first set 25-21 over Vernon Evans had 6 pts, 3 aces, 1 block during this set, all of that for nothing.

Insane defence on that point from … and Mandiraci finishes it off

Another ace straight out of the timeout for Vernon-Evans, damn 3rd in a row

Vernon-Evans, I’ve missed you

Four touches really should be challengeable…

Lucky you! Enjoy!

Maybe so, but you never have confidence in Italy ever, which is completely unwarranted because you guys always win a bunch of medals.

You’re just about the most pessimistic person on the forum, aren’t you? And I thought I was bad

2.36m first attempt clearance for Kerr, WL
