Jennifer Joines interviewed Piacenza vs. Chieri 

Dopo la partita (After The Game) Chieri vs. Pesaro 

On Web Pacific:

“Last Wednesday I had a dream that Diane (French) call and said ‘Guess what kiddo, you made it,’” Joines said. Then I woke up and realized it was only a dream. Then on Friday morning, Diane called for real and said ‘Guess what kiddo, you made it.’” It was like déjà vu and I kept telling myself to ‘Wake up. This is only a dream.’ Since being told I made the Olympic Team, I have had flashbacks to my earliest time with USA Volleyball and the A2 program and what has got me to this point.”

From Buzzle.com:

 “Four players -- Cynthia Barboza, Nicole Davis, Jennifer Joines and Ogonna Nnamani -- have joined the USA women's national team to begin training for that arduous journey that will hopefully lead the United States to the top of the Olympic podium in August.”

Olympic coach Yoshida on Davis:

"Nicole has been playing very well for USC," said Yoshida. "It is worth it to bring her here to see what she can do. Even though (USA libero) Sarah Drury is playing well and getting better, we need the competition."
