Volleyball Again

Yes, last Saturday we were back in the gym watching volleyball.  Keith and Erica went to Pender with Neuhalfen's for the 5th & 6th Grade tournament.  Ashlin, Justin and I went to Pierce for the 7th & 8th Grade games.

 It was a learning day for the 5th Grade girls.  Many of the teams at this tournament were a combination of 5th & 6th grade girls, therefore, they were playing up.  Our team was all 5th graders.

 It was also a learning day for the 7th Grade girls to always play until the whistle blows.  They had a few controversial calls at the end of their game and lost the last set.  The 7th Grade "B" team won in two sets and the 7th Grade "A" team lost in two sets.  When you only have 9 girls on the 7th Grade team, we don't really have an "A" or "B" team.  Cara played all four sets.

 Erica's serving and bumping has improved so much this fall.  Hopefully, soon she will be ready to start serving overhand, but right now she doesn't have enough muscle to get the ball over.

This is our last week in the gym for junior high volleyball, but we still have a few more Saturdays left with Erica playing in tournaments.  Go Lady Knights!

Take care,
