One server got three in a row. She was missing in game two, which was to our benefit. It makes it a whole lot easier when they give the ball back.
I'm glad we pulled this one out. We were 48-of-60 serving, which was uncharacteristic of our team. We're not quite in sync right now. We're making a lot of errors on the floor. But I'm happy we got the victory.
We were strong at the net and had several players get in and do a great job.
That looked like volleyball. It's exciting when everyone executes what you've coached them in practice.
That made me nervous at practice. Typically whoever wins the conference ends up going 10-0 or 9-1. But we played Carbondale the first night out last year also and beat them.
Overall, scores were higher than I thought. I'm proud of both Haley and Kari. Now we finally have one who has advanced to state. Let's hope the weather will be a little better.
We're still trying to figure out who will play back there. The rest of the kids on the sub list all could end up in that spot.
Sharpe has been playing well and has been consistently shooting in the low 50s all year. That was the boost that we needed today.
Historically, we haven't done well at this tournament. Last year we were fourth, and to get fourth, you have to lose twice. Second is better.
They surprise you when they come back. They actually are different. Some have lost some baby fat, some are stronger, some are taller.
