Spring Midcore Co-ed Indoor Volleyball at Fernwood Tuesday

Steven ate his Wheaties this morning and was ready to be back playing volleyball at Fernwood. At the net Steven was ready for anything that came his was from the big hitting Gravy Diggers. It was a fun game with two great teams but Steven stood out tonight with his hard work and well timed jumps. Great work Steven and all of Burt Reynolds.

Hands Down TOP Player of the Week candidate right here is Justin. Burt Reynolds played an amazing game against Spike the Punch and although they were on the losing end, Justin made sure that it wasn't because of lack of effort. Laying out for every ball that came his way, Justin was determined to make sure that he got a touch on the ball, even if he was a few inches short after a deep serve that came right back. Justin returned some hard serves (with the help of Steven's back), threw in a few big hits and followed up with some spectacular blocks. MVP all around and well deserved by the hard working, always keeping it fun, Justin B. He and all of his team are awesome Underdogers and really keep it fun. Great work Justin and all of Burt Reynolds!

Durning the 7:15 game we took a quick trip down to Florida with Burt Reynolds and the tour guide was a wonderfully dressed Mariel M. It all started with Suzies Flamingo Shorts and a great idea. So tonight, looking like they were straight out of the Sunshitne State, Burt Reynolds had theme night Florida Style. Mariel M was the theme leader in her Bingo Formal hat and floral shirt. The whole team took part and brightened up the gym. As Oregon was on a break from the real sunshine, Burt Reynolds was creating their own sunshine. They mixed in some great volleyball as well and made it a night to remember. Great work all of Burt Reynolds and way to go Mariel....best volleyball theme night yet!

Consistency is key when you get to the underdog playoffs and that is exactly how Monica plays. Every week she is there ready to go and make plays. She is constantly diving to save the play and makes great back row plays when most would watch the ball drop. Tonight was no different, she had some great one arm diving saves to keep the play alive. We also cant forget her awesome serving. She gets it over and in 99% of the time. She is a rock on this team and makes sure that everything is done to get the win. Great work Monica and all of the Gravy Diggers. Good luck in round 2!
