Additionally, she revealed that the level of competency is quite high in these tournaments and even during the training sessions. She said (via USA Volleyball:

"I think it was just a glimpse of what life after college volleyball is going to be like. It's a small sample of what pro volleyball is like obviously, you're playing with the best girls from your country against the best girls from another country and so the level of competition is just so high even in your practice gym and so I would say that was kind of the biggest thing for me is just you get a small dose of what pro volleyball is like."
