3/4 recap and 3/5 games

Free agency runs through March 6.  Let me know of pickups BEFORE the new player/unrostered starts playing. 

Wednesday's scores and recap:

Sets and the City 14, The Americas 25- Sets and the City are getting better.  The Americas are scary good.

Shrimp Mode 26, Chaos 24- Huge playoff matchup here and it did not disappoint!  First loss for Chaos and Shrimp Mode's most quality win.

The Americas 25, The Untouchaballs 15- The Untouchaballs are getting ready for double elimination and look like a tough team.  The Americas is close to sealing the deal as the one seed.  They have been the best team but will they choke in the tourney?

Sets and the City 25, Average Joes 27- Did anyone tell Average Joes they won the championship last year?  Play like you want it.

The Untouchaballs 25, Average Joes 23- This could be a result win for tournament seeding.  Apparently Joes does not want a first round bye.

Finacey's Finest 14, Beavis and Bumphead 25- Beavis and Bumphead get their first win!  Will Finacey's Finest get their act together?  

Lundquist's Army 25, Opps and Kids 23- Lundquist's Army gets their first win!  If you call them down tomorrow, it doesn't look right!

3/2 recap, NO GAMES 3/3 and 3/4 games

Free agency runs through March 6.  Let me know of pickups BEFORE the new player/unrostered starts playing. 

Monday's scores and recap:

Beavis and Bumphead 3, The Untouchaballs 25- This was an absolute thrashing.  The Untouchaballs have the athletes and the team work.  If they can limit the carries, nets and assorted fouls like attacking serves, they could make could make some noise next week.  And I'm not just talking about the noise they make when they win a volley.  I do like the incessant clapping.

Sets and the City 25, Finacey's Finest 19- If Sets and the City could use 4 hits, they would be really good.  They did get their first win though.  This one was close but Scola showing up changed the game.  Finacey's Finest is still looking for their first win.  They have possibly the most string servers in the league.  I already knew Tuck can crush it but Trey and Amber showed they are great servers as well.  If this team can ever figure out how to rotate, the wins will come.  A huge opportunity against Beavis and Bumphead awaits Wednesday.  Win the day!

Beavis and Bumphead 10, Average Joes 25- If Beavis and Bumphead called in a diversion to get P. Cook out of the game, it didn't get you the W.

The Americas 25, Opps and Kids 17- The adults decided they would let some kids play for once.  The kids came through and the Americas remains undefeated.  Opps and Kids has shown flashes and they might have made a big addition to their roster before the tournament with tech savvy Mr. Levielle.  He's smooth.  If someone else starts writing on here though, it's him.  I'm fine with him playing, but he better not hack my blog!

Chaos 25, The Untouchaballs 18- Chaos also remained undefeated today.  This game was absolutely close the whole way until the end.  After a call on Untouchaballs, they came unraveled.  How beatable is Chaos without one of their stars?  The track kids can't play, so can Chaos go all the way now?  Will Maddog Jr. and Sara turn up the power on the death star serves with Sev out?  

Lundquist's Army 17, Shrimp Mode 25- Shrimp Mode is eyeing a top seed from the shadows.  Chaos and Americas have tough games ahead and Shrimp Mode is trying to sneak in to one of the top 2 seeds and a bye with their excellent play.  They are hard to out-volley.  You have to thrown down (spike) on them to beat them.

2/27 recap and 3/2 games

Free agency runs through March 6.  Let me know of pickups BEFORE the new player/unrostered starts playing.  Check in even if I am playing a game or reffing a game.  Comish is more important and I will pause to answer questions, etc.  Keep getting better at your game and teamwork people!


Friday's scores and recap:

Lundquist's Army 14, The Untouchaballs 25- The Untouchaballs have won 2 in a row.  They eye three with Beavis on Monday.  Keep the streak alive!

Sets and the City 24, Opps and Kids 26- This was the best game of the day by far!  Sets and the City staged a great come back only to come up just barely short.  Big net points by el Jefe with the game on the line.  Killing them with kindness- tapping it over the net!  Deflection, score!

Chaos 25, Finacey's Finest 10- Chaos awaits a challenge.

Shrimp Mode 25, Beavis and Bumphead 13- After a set back, Shrimp Mode is ramping up for the playoffs.  They volley very well.

Chaos 25, Lundquist's Army 8- Chaos still awaits a challenge.

The Americas 25, Average Joes 11- This was truly a humbling experience.  Average Joes made some mistakes, but The Americas are that good.  They bump, set and spike as good as anybody.  Silveria has gotten better too.

Thursday's scores and recap:

Sets and the City 15,The Untouchaballs 25- The first half of this game was competitive, but then Untouchaballs pulled away for their first win.  Meadow is a good server and Harsheel has tremendous upside.  Avoid the meltdowns and you will be good.

Shrimp Mode 25, Finacey's Finest 8- What's the over/under on wins for Finacey's Finest?  1?  What did Ms. Finacey say?  Pas bon?

Chaos 25, Beavis and Bumphead 10-Beavis and Bumphead play another good team Friday.  Learn to play quick kids!  Chaos looks forward to a challenge.

The Americas 25, Shrimp Mode 18- This game was close for the first half but then Felype took over.  Good luck against him.  He looks older than me.

Average Joes 25, Opps and Kids 14- Happy birthday Dr. Perella!  For his birthday, we gave him a beatdown in volleyball!

The Americas 25, Lundquist's Army 16- Lundquist's Army against Untouchaballs will be the game to watch Friday.  Will Lundquist's Army get that needed first win or will Untouchaballs start a winning streak?

2/25/26 recap and 2/26/26 games

No forfeits day 1, that's a win.  I cannot tell you how many times people said, "I don't know if we have enough people." My team played with 4 and won twice.  We had two geniuses on our team who were going to fly back Sunday and then a blizzard happened and they were out of town still stranded.  We made it happen.  No worries ever.  The other teams picked up available players and emailed me, came to the classroom and told me, and one team even saw me on the courts before the game and declared the player.  I wrote the name down and then added it to the website later.  Good job.  That kid played well too.  There are lots of good available players.  Pick them up before March 6 and declare them to me before they play.   Way to scramble and get a team on the court.  Plan ahead though.  Look at the game schedule.  Good job to the teams who have a group chat and are ready.  Looking forward to teams starting to play a bit better too, but good job getting on the court Wednesday!


Wednesday's scores and recap:

Shrimp Mode 25, The Untouchaballs 18- This was absolutely the best game of the day.  Do not let the 7 point differential fool you.  This game was 18-18 until Shrimp Mode ran away with it.  Shrimp Mode made some super athletic plays early in the game and Untouchaballs scrambled well.  Late in the game, Untouchaballs made some self-inflicted errors they did not do earlier in the game and it slipped away, but Untouchaballs proved they are competitive with a top 4 team right out of the gate.  Prediction- Untouchaballs will finish the regular season with a winning record.  They will go out looking for their first win Thursday and I bet they get it against a team with a poor attendance record.

The Americas 25, Finacey's Finest 12- The Americas too it easy on them and they look forward to their first real test.  That will come Thursday with 2 games in a row and one against a top 4 team.

Beavis and Bumphead 18, Opps and Kids 25- I did not see this game and I wish I did.  Love seeing close games.  Beavis and Bumphead has size and talent.  Stick with it kids and you will make some noise.  Speaking of noise, you have to love seeing Perella and his legion of knee brace wearing athletes with their hand up to their ear.  The Opps are here to remind you, you have to beat them.  They are not going to let you win.  "I can't hear you" is what they hand to the ear means for you young folks.

Average Joes 25, Lundquist's Army 13- Lundquist's Army is much improved this year.  Several of the players admitted that they looked up on Google "how to play volleyball" on Wednesday (I literally saw that on go guardian), but with that said, they played really well before a complete implosion.  The upper classmen who have played before have clearly improved.

Average Joes 25, Finacey's Finest 9- Tuck has a cannon.  That does not mean she can serve every other person.  Remember people, we do not "substitute" in intramurals, we rotate.  After you serve and then get the ball back for the next serve, everyone goes one space clockwise.  You can do it, you are AP students.  You will figure it out.  Dance to the next spot if you need to.

Chaos 25, Sets and the City 7- Sets and the City had to play the pre-season #1 in the first game.  Tough draw.  Stick with it, find your chemistry and I have no doubt that the unintentional head balls over the net winning volleys and gutsy 2-3 game winning streaks will happen again.  Find your mojo.  No lie, there is a player on Sets and the City who has a knack for heading the ball over the net at least once a game and you can tell she's trying to hit it with another part of her body.  It works every time.  Feed Harsheel and Ilges.  It will go down.
