Ogden volleyball coach Jenni Winter praised her team’s focus and energy during a homecoming-week win over Southeast Valley, then said the Bulldogs went 2-2 at a weekend tournament. Penn State Altoona’s Hannah Swank earned offensive-player recognition after recording 34 kills and 11 service aces in two conference victories, while Pitt-Bradford’s Tori Unverdorben was honored defensively after helping her team secure two sweeps. At Wisconsin, reserve Isabelle Hoppe has taken on a growing serving role, and is working to contribute in the backcourt as well. Separate coverage of Wisconsin star Sarah Franklin recounts her recovery from a potentially career-ending health scare, her standout season and national recognition, and her continuing connection to the program.

The expansion could bring ESPN an additional $345 million annually, but critics warn that more playoff games could further weaken regular-season viewership and the relevance of bowl games.
