This past year was a great success on so many levels. As I looked back at our opponents in Dallas, here are some fun facts:
Overall, we finished 5-5 in matches, 12-12 in sets
Our five losses were to:
FB Fire     Finished #1 overall  witrh a 11-0 record   We lost to them 26-24, 25-18
Vision Finished #2 overall  with  a 10-1 record   We lost to them 25-13, 30-28,  
Miz LB14 Rockstar Finished #9 (winning Silver) with an 8-3 record We lost to them 25-9, 10-25, 15-13
CSVB 14 Open Finshed #13 oversall with a 5-4 record    We lost to them 27-25, 28-26
PSVBA 14-1 Finished #20 overall with a 3-6 record    We lost to them 22-25, 25-22, 15-9

Of he other five teams that we beat, none of them finished lower than 30 out of 48.  That tells me that we played very tough teams in our division, and didn't get any of the 'easy matches'!  It tells me that we had a tough pool to start with. 
Our wins were over:
CIS 14M 25-20, 25-15      Finished #30
El Paso Stars 18-25, 25-23, 15-8    Finished #27
Assault 14 NFinity 23-25, 25-14, 15-10  Finished #26
Club West 14 National 25-19, 25-17    Finished #24
Premier 14 Gold 25-18, 25-21      Finished #22


All of our players contributed to our successes over the year, and at Nationals. For some players, who didn't get to play as much, their continued hard work in practice not only made them better, but it helped their teammates also. Their encouragement on the bench was incredibly important to the total team feeling that we had the whole time we were there.
