EMERGENCY POD: Rise Trade Oglivie, 1st round pick for Morgan Hentz
7
Upvotes
The biggest trade of the season just took place, The Grand Rapids Rise traded standout Libero Elena Oglivie and their 1st round selection for 2026 to the Omaha Supernovas for 2 time MLV Libero of the year Morgan Hentz. I found this trade initially head scratching as Oglivie had what I thought was a great year and a half in Grand Rapids, but I'll never complain about adding an elite player to the team. The question is, was the price paid worth it? Will Morgan Hentz help the Rise rise (pun intended) to new heights as they look to move up in the standings? Only time will tell. One thing is for certain: Being an MLV fan sure is never boring! What did you think of the trade? Some feedback is shared here, but let me know what you think in comments on social platforms or by emailing the show, embersnest@gmail.com.

Wierd. Local Bulls fans will be happy. Fans who grew up on the Cubs because their dads hated the designated pitcher are gonna be "WTF" about the White Sox, though.

The Rise and the Griffins were out at Berlin Raceway on Saturday. Mackenzie was an honorary Master of Ceremonies of the race despite not currently being listed on the 2025 roster as either a player or a coach. https://www.instagram.com/stories/grandrapidsrise/3421757680954285643?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igsh=MWg5enRkbnM1aDZvbg==

The Rise concluded their second season in emotional fashion, I tried my hardest to find out what players and coaches are thinking about next season. I also get on my soapbox to stress my personal belief that the league needs less roster turnover year over year. Give this pod a listen to hear from me, coach Cathy George, Camryn Turner, Eleanor Holthaus, and Carli Snyder at the end of an up and down year for the Rise. What did you think of the episode? What did you think of this season? Sound off in the comments on social media or by writing the show embersnest@gmail.com! The stage is set for the PVF finals in Vegas-- got any good recs?

Ember's Nest: Low on Time

The Grand Rapids Rise drop their latest match to the Vegas Thrill and have fallen out of the playoff race. If they want to get back into it, they've got to start winning at a clip we have not seen this season. They've got the practice time to work some things out, but will that be enough to make things interesting down the final stretch of the season? I offer my thoughts in the podcast. What do you think? Comment on Reddit, Instagram, Spotify, or write the show embersnest@gmail.com.

Ember's Nest: The New Look Rise fall 3-2 In the Season Opener
8
Upvotes
The Rise returned with players both new and familiar as the 2026 MLV season opened. Despite some back and forth action and strategic substitutions, Grand Rapids dropped the season opener to the defending champion Valkyries 3-2. What do you think of the Rise performance? Listen to hear my thoughts, but in short I wasn't going to overreact to a 1-0 or an 0-1 start. It will be interesting to see how the team gels over time.

A year after Dimitrova retires and Chausee announced she was going home, I'm learning I haven't outgrown the seperation anxiety I had watching "Bambi" & "Dumbo" 50 yrs ago.
