Spring season is here and we had the opportunity to host a total of 16 teams here on campus last Saturday. They gym was full and alive as people from all over the state (and a couple surrounding states) came to watch some great early-spring volleyball.
We actually split our team into two even teams. Both teams played well all day with only one loss apiece. They ended up playing each other in the play-offs. It was such a different feeling than when we play each other in practice. With the refs and fans, there was so much energy and excitement that we just can't replicate in our day-to-day practices. It was a tight match that ended up going three games. In all, we were very pleased with where we are at this point in the season.
Many people have asked us if we think that this next season is going to be a "rebuilding" year. With losing four seniors that were impact players, I can see how people can think that. The reality...at least in our minds...is that we are going to have another great season in 2010. Yes, we did lose some very key athletes, but we also feel that we have some great athletes coming up and ready to take their turn in the spotlight. We may be a bit younger next year, but all signs point to us making another run to the top! We hope you stay tuned...it is a great time to be a BEAR!
