    Also Paul Sanderson and Luke Reynolds are still listed on the roster at Newman University so I can only presume they are still there: http://www.newmanu.edu/athletics/volleyballmens/

    Howdy,

    Tara West (ex AIS middle hitter) was playing last year for Washington State in the NCAA, I think she’s back again for another season this year.

    I think spike needs to do a article on SHAYLA CHALKER. She has been living and playing volleyball in America for the past two years. She has won many awards… she is a two-time All-America. Her freshman year she received a NJCAA Player of the week. Shayla has won many MVP awards and all tournament teams. Shayla is being recuited by some of the top colleges in a America and I feel like she isnt getting the recognition from Australia that she deserves. Shayla has been a valuable member of volleyball victoria since 2001 and one of the best young athletes at junior nationals over the past 6 years!!

    Hey Devo,

    You probably have this link already, but… if you want to run a search of female players in the US, you can go to Rich Kern’s website ( http://www.richkern.com/vb/index.asp ) — run a search by country under Roster Index.

    Rich Kern is a great resource to keep up on women playing in the NCAA/NAIA.

    Cheers,
    Sandy

    Hey Devo

    Nik West is no longer in Denmark. He’s in Australia, coaching Adelaide Rangers. See this link:

    I knew Nik was back in Oz and coaching the girls. The AVL is now over. I’m not sure what Nik’s plans are for this season. Anyone out there know?

    We played a training match this weekend against Swedish team LUGI.

    They had a guy called Steve Wallace, who I think is Australian.

    Nik is training in Adelaide at the moment…

    Seems like he’ll play State League in South Australia this season.

    Does anyone know what is happening with Nick Goldsbrough-Reardon? He isnt listed on the UC Irvine mens volleyball roster so I thought he might have moved elsewhere.

  24. Anon Says:
    April 7, 2008 at 8:41 pm

    He has had some paperwork issues. He’s been training with them but is not cleared to play, which explains why he isn’t on the roster on the website.

  25. Houst Says:
    April 8, 2008 at 4:55 pm

    Oh thanks for that. Hopefully it all gets sorted out, I would love to see him play and hopefully appear on tv lol. :)

  26. USAVB Says:

    Yes that was a very unfortunate situation..Nick was recruited to go to UCI and organized an exchange from his college in Australia so as to get credit towards his degree I believe. I had the pleasure of seeing him play in the pre-season and I must say he was doing very well- great athlete! apparently looking good to be a starter- coach John Speraw is a good friend of mine. Unfortunately the NCAA was being extremely difficult in clearing him because his exchange program was not “available to all the other schools in the conference”, and unfortunately this was something that no one could have anticipated before hand. John has very good things to report about Nick and last I heard he is still working hard with the team in every way obviously apart from the games. I am unaware of the final result of his clearance but I would guess, unfortunately for both him and the team, it did not work out for the best. UCI is currently in Utah playing in the conference quarter final game against BYU for a spot in the semi’s.
