Fall Midcore Volleyball at St Charles Thursdays

After missing Week 1 with a bye, We Will Win Digly came more than ready to start their fall season at St. Charlie's. And what a match they played behind Sophie Hatch's magical serving technique. Without any faults or errors, she had an incredible number of points with her nifty one-armed serves. She's so quick with the toss and punch and the ball barely skims over the net which makes it tricky for defensive returns. The Diglys came out with guns blazing by defeating Indy #38 three games to zero. Cheered on by Sophie's adorable baby son, Mama showed the little guy her stuff not only with service but great attacking moves. Her one-armed style was key in a deciding win for the Diglys and a great way to launch their season.

This week's POTW is We Will Win Digly's Jack-of-All-Trades guy, Erik Everson. The master of knowing the right place at the right time and skillfully putting a body part in play whenever necessary. Erik uses every possible movement to make a play but it's always very calculated with positive results. We Will Win Digly put up a good and competitive fight in Thursday Midcore at St. Charles vs. Sets on Sets on Sets aided defensively by Erik Is Everywhere's outstanding play. He saved so many rallies, it made our heads spin to count them all. After losing the first two sets, the Diglys roared back behind Erik's huge net play and won by a 25-15 margin. So watch where your going and get out of the way, 'cause Erik is definitely Everywhere!

Sets on the Beach only had four on the floor on Thursday night at St. Charles, but if Andrea Ferreiro is one of those players, then you know she brings the energy to make up for two more people! Andrea and the Sets are longtime USL teammates and know each other's style very well. As the team captain, Andrea gets her squad energized with her constant smile and infectious competitiveness. Rarely one to fault on service, she was on fire with forceful offense. In the backcourt, Andrea showed off a few clever ups and her setting was accurate for teammates Zach, Linda and Daniel. Thanks to Andrea for brightening up the gym on a dark and rainy night!

Mark Omaswa has mastered the net game and showed his stuff at St. Charles on Thursday night in a playoff match vs. Minions. In an absolutely flawless performance, Mark took charge at front court and made sure his hands were ready to tip at every opportunity. Tips aren't all Mark has to offer while being at the front - he's also fantastic with having the ups to smash kills and put up blocks. His team Sets on Fire were firing on all cylinders as they battled to advance in the playoffs behind Mark's excellent defense. While Sets on Fire missed out on the opportunity to move ahead in the bracket, Mark didn't miss a beat in his performance.
