beat conference ends last nervous night played practice whoever wins year
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.
dug girls good hard played saves
The girls played hard and dug up a lot of balls. There were some good saves and a lot of hustles.
coached exciting looked practice
That looked like volleyball. It's exciting when everyone executes what you've coached them in practice.
last lose second year
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.
advanced both finally higher hope proud scores weather
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.
fired game midway stuff
Crump's stuff midway through the first game got us fired up.
serving strong talent team
This is a strong serving team and we have height. But not just height, there's talent there. We should be strong.
amanda force last snaps year
Amanda will be a force for us. She's really come along. She started at the end of last year and this year has really got it down. She snaps 'em down.

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.
great job net players several strong
We were strong at the net and had several players get in and do a great job.
