State-End of the 2011 Season

We took it on the road one more time and headed down to State in Olympia.  It was great to be back on the big stage.

Best way to put the 2 Day Experience, A Roller-Coaster, but one Ride I would do over and over again.

We lost our 1st match in 5. Played hard but came up short.  We then went out and looked to be effectively done in our 2nd Match, but found a fire deep inside and pulled out a thrilling down 0-2 to come out 3-2 victory and a shot to play on the 2nd Day.

We loved it and we went down and cheered on the Football team that night, who was playing in Tumwater.  They had an amazing game, much congrats to them.

Day 2, saw us come out and play hard, but it wasn't enough to over take Black Hills and with a 0-3 Match loss we ended a wonderful 2011 VB Season.  We finished tied for 12th and played on the last day of organized HS VB in the State.

As I look back over the last 10-11 Weeks, I am filled with much Joy for all this team went out an accomplished.  They played as a team and never gave up on each other.

I want to Thank Tory, Madeline, Sami, Morgan, Beth, Angelina, Sarah, Annie, Amanda, Alex, Marea, and Hannah for giving of your time and effort to help build this program into what it is today.  I owe you all a sincere debt of gratitude.

I also want to thank Greg, could not have come close to doing all this without your help and feedback throughout the year,  Your the best GP!!!!!

Lastly, but not least, I want to thank the hardwork of the JV team this year.  Sarah has alot to be proud of, as do the rest of us. I also want to give a sincere thanks to the JVC kids and our new coach Mary Kay for working hard and going up against the odds week in and week out, but doing it with a smile and positive determination.

We will put the final wrap on the 2011 season with the VB Banquet next week at school and then put it all to bed until 2012 rolls around.

Thanks to all who followed the Blog this year and apologize for being behind on postings at time.

Thank you all and See you in the gym........
