CA represent'n in the NCAA Division I Womens volleyball Championship

With no. 2 Nebraska (27 and 1 during the regular season) surviving Michigan State (19-13) 3 sets to 2, the regional finals in the NCAA Division I Womens volleyball championship are set: in Palo Alto, CA, no. 1 Stanford (27-2) hosts no. 8 University of CA @ LA (20-10); in Gainesville, Florida, no. 4 Univeristy of Texas (24-3) will play no. 5 University of Southern CA (25-4); in the Wisconsin capital, University of Nebraska takes on no. 10 University of CA @ beserkley (I'm an alum', I have the right) (22-7); and at University Park, PA, no. 3 Penn State (28-2) takes on Brigham Young University (21-7). In the second round, USC took out another CA power house, Tayyiba Haneef-Park's alma mater Long Beach State, 3 sets to 2.

I know Logan Tom is a Stanford alum'; but, before just totally ranking to the n-th any totally sports-sheltered being who may not have known that, I thought I'd double check, again. Instead of doing like a "wikipedia.org" or something, I stuck her name in a search engine, and the photos that led the results . . .. I remember the discussion during the Athens Olympics about the oh so little cute Amanda Beard having ditched her '00 teddy bears for more mature revelations. but I was unaware that Logan Tom had joined her (precisely why I am not a Maxim, FHM, Playboy kind of . . . man: the issue of social responsibility, or credible lack thereof.). I think I am glad I am not fluent in Spanish for this: (I am not so sure even about the general suitability of the title here) Actually, I am enjoying exagerating: Logan plays beach volleyball, so it's all in the use of the word "posing" with that of "bikini".
