The Midcore Finals found Fear the Tape facing off with Hit ‘em Up. Both teams came off hard fought Semifinal games in the hot sun, so they were well past warmed up. Fear the Tape took an early lead in the first set at 5-1 after two sand-grazing digs by Shannon. A couple missed hits by Fear the Tape brought the game to 10s, and then Hit ‘em Up continued on their scoring streak to bring them ahead 17-11. Hit ‘em Up had some great, deep serves that proved too hard to return and they won the first set 21-12. The second set started off with a huge spike by Robert to set the tone. In the very next point, Hit ‘em Up responded with one of their own from Jeff. The two teams played even to 8s with a succession of perfect passes, spikes, and then returns back. Fear the Tape showed their skills with a huge block and then running save on the same ball from Scott, and perfect sets from Angela. However, Hit ‘em Up responded with Ben's presence at the net, Aubrey's powerful hits from the back line, and Meghan. They continued to use their communication and solid fundamentals to avoid mistakes and bring the score to point-12. On game point, Aubrey was going to owe the whole court a beer if she missed her serve, but it was perfect! Hit ‘em Up won the second set 21-18 to become our Midcore Champions!
