We were short of our full roster at power league. This was a blessing in disguise because I was able to keep the rotation pretty consistent. I think this helped the girls to really know where they were on the court (i.e. serving order & switching). Warming up with regular volleyballs (the heavier ones as the girls put it) made it easier in the match to get our serves over and in! We served more consistently and were pumped up and energetic most of the day.
As for our record, we won a match in pool play vs. SVC Red (25-21, 25-18 & 25-21). We ended up coming in 2nd. We also won a match in crossover vs. NCVBC Blue (25-16, 17-25 & 15-11). We ended up playing OJVA 12-Black at the end of the day (they were ready, but we were not)! We lost and I think we all learned a valuable lesson about teamwork and energy. Coming together in the middle and encouraging each other is very important, especially at the end of the day.
