If a "dig" remains on the digging team's side it is called a cover and not tracked.
You would think John Baylor would know that..... also coach Cook?
They just seemed to think there was a lot more digs than there actually was.

So when Lexi receives/passes a serve, that is a pass, not a dig. And when she fields a block from the opponent and keeps it up, that is a cover, not a dig. And you can only dig “attacks”, so no dig when you receive a free ball. But most other first contacts from a libero are digs. I think a dig is broader than one might think. NCAA statistics rule:
SECTION 4—DIGS
Article 1. A dig (D) is awarded when a player passes the ball that has been attacked by the opposition. Digs are given only when players receive an attacked ball and it is kept in play, not when a ball is brought up off a “put back” (blocked ball).
Philosophy.
The pass or play of any ball that is attacked is awarded a dig. The ball can be kept in play on the digger’s side of the net or can go back to the opposition. In either case, a dig is awarded.
Note:
If an attack, as defined in Section 1, occurs and the ball is kept in play, then a player on the defending team receives a dig.
A.R. 1. Team White attacks the ball. Team Blue player saves the ball but (a) no one on Team Blue can keep the ball in play or (b) the ball stays in play.
RULING:
In (a), a dig is not awarded. In (b), Team Blue player is awarded a dig.
A.R. 2. Team White player No. 1 attacks the ball. The ball goes off Team Blue player No. 1 and (a) is returned to Team White and passed by Team White player No. 2 or (b) goes to Team Blue player No. 2 who keeps the ball in play.
RULING:
In (a), Team Blue player No. 1 is not awarded a block nor is Team White player No. 2 awarded a dig. A block is not considered an attack and therefore a player cannot be given a dig off a block attempt. In (b), Team Blue player No. 1 is not awarded a block but Team Blue player No. 2 is awarded a dig.
A.R. 3. Team White player attacks the ball. Team Blue player digs the ball (a) from which Team Blue proceeds to keep the ball in play or (b) but returns it to Team White.
RULING:
In both cases, Team Blue player receives a dig.
A.R. 4. Team White’s setter aggressively sets or dumps the ball over the net. Team Blue player passes the ball, keeping it in play.
RULING:
Team White’s setter receives a “0 attack” while Team Blue player is awarded a dig.

The pass or play of any ball that is attacked is awarded a dig. The ball can be kept in play on the digger’s side of the net or can go back to the opposition. In either case, a dig is awarded.

A.R. 1. Team White attacks the ball. Team Blue player saves the ball but (a) no one on Team Blue can keep the ball in play or (b) the ball stays in play.

In (b), Team Blue player No. 1 is not awarded a block but Team Blue player No. 2 is awarded a dig.
A.R. 3. Team White player attacks the ball. Team Blue player digs the ball (a) from which Team Blue proceeds to keep the ball in play or (b) but returns it to Team White.
RULING:
In both cases, Team Blue player receives a dig.
A.R. 4. Team White’s setter aggressively sets or dumps the ball over the net. Team Blue player passes the ball, keeping it in play.
RULING:
Team White’s setter receives a “0 attack” while Team Blue player is awarded a dig.

When Lexi receives or passes, I know that's not a dig.
Give me a break, man!
It is quite apparent, Cook and Baylor just felt like Lexi had more digs, just flying all over the place.
Nothing more.
