We went 8 and 1 in the KC Martin Luther King Junior Tournament playing in 17 Open. We finished with a FIRST place medal.
3rd Place Finish- 17 OPEN
President's Day Classic-Omaha
We went 6-1 in pool play and placed 2nd in our pool. Moved into Gold Bracket and had a very strong finish taking KC Power to 3 games for a 3rd place overall tournament finish. By far our best game of the tournament. This is a game that I will not forget. KC Power is ranked 1st in our region and we took them by surprise with a dominant win the first match 25-21. The second match we were ahead for most of the game but slowly lost our lead and lost 24-26. Finishing our 3rd match at 11-15. Even though we lost, it clearly was one of the best games we played as a team. A link is available on YouTube if you would like to see the entire game.
That's me #7..doing what I like to do...blocking the hitter!
QUALIFIED FOR NATIONALS!
We had a strong finish in Powerleague. Going up against the top 10 teams in our region. They gave us some great competition. Our record was 9-1. We got our National level bid. We will be competing in 3 more JNQ to try to get our open bid. See ya in Denver, Indy and KC!
