Pepper

A partner cycle of dig-set-hit that you run feet from the net or over it to wake up your eyes and platforms before practice or a match. It is not a game stat; it is volume. College teams still pepper even with analytics everywhere because feel still matters in volleyball.

Example

Partner pepper over the half-net: three contacts each time, then narrow the control until someone laughs.
