Sam has not only lead the Ninjas to glory and championship this season, but she has fearlessly steered the team to winning seasons and fun for too many seasons to count. It is but sweet, sweet spleandor that her last season as captain with Underdog volleyball was capped with another 'Ship for the Ninjas. We will miss you Sam, and in honor of your last game, you are our Underdog volleyball player of the week!
While yours truly typically awards a USL POTW honor each week, Thursday night at Tubman Midcore deserved a special honor. And the rare Team of the Week (TOTW) accolade goes to Net Ninjas. This crazy crew started with a few folks at USL indoor and sand volleyball over 5 years ago led by Scott and Sam Hoback. Ninja Squadron Leaders Scott and Sam were joined over the years by Chris, Gloria, Nialls, Nicole and Kristi who make up the current squad. They play like a force of nature with some of the best teamwork we've ever witnessed in USL volleyball. They've won back-to-back-to back championships this past year and it could be a 2016-17 sweep if they bring their best to next week's championship game vs. All About That Ace. Playing without their Service Queen Gloria on Thursday night, the Ninjas were able to fill in with the usual killer moves at net and screamin' service by Chris and Scott, perfectly placed assists by Sam and Kristi, and Nialls providing the impressive digs and defense along with his usual silliness that keeps the mood fun. All this effort added up to a 2-0 match vs. Spiketastic and a trip to the finals next week. Oh, and one other thing....next week will be the Ninjas last games together, as Sam and Scott will be exiting the NW for sunnier, warmer climes in SoCal. We're sad to see the Ninjas break up the fantastic fun and teamwork, but thankful for the great sportsmanship, competition and incredible athleticism each and every one of their members has shared over their time with USL. Thanks for the memories Ninjas, and you'll always find a home with your USL peeps! HIYA!
There's a special spark on the Net Ninjas, and it's that goofy guy, Nialls Chavez! Nialls always ignites the mood of the game and is a reminder to everybody that the key word in sports and teamwork is FUN. The other big reason he gets the USL POTW shout out this week is due to the fact that Nialls is also awarded MIP (Most Improved Player) for Thursday Midcore at Tubman. We've witnessed a big transformation in Nialls's game - from his underhand serves to big league overhead smashers, from wondering where he's supposed to be at the net, to become a wondrous force on offense throwing down some crazy tips and kills. This all proves what a coachable guy he is. So much so that he was a big influence on the Ninjas' 6-0 game victory over the span of two games on Thursday. Nialls' has gone from beginner to an advanced level performance while maintaining that silliness that keeps the game fun - well done!
