How come I've never noticed these volleyballers outside the Pharmacy before? Since this was built - and therefore these were probably carved - in 1926-7, all I can deduce from this is that women players weren't 6'2" back in the day. Let's see if they look snappier than this in Long Beach on Saturday, at LBSU's spring tournament - I'm intrigued to find that the volleyball courts there are in the Walter Pyramid, which is one of only three true pyramids in the US - the others being the Luxor one in Las Vegas, and that strange arena in Memphis (so - I'm dressing up my planned day watching WVB as an exercise in architectural inquisitiveness? Good try).
