I think you may be correct. Today Wiley played much better after sitting out the last three sets on Friday.

My take on this team is that we're a piece or two away this year. This is a tourney team, but I don't think we'll get past the first weekend.

Another 3-0 sweep. At Cal this time.

Doesn't look like it will be anytime soon. She is still in a cast. Once the cast is removed I would imagine it would take at least a couple weeks or more to get the hand ready for competition. Being a setter she needs to have flexure in those joints which means some extensive therapy to eliminate the scar tissue from surgery.

That's was pretty gut wrenching. I just feel super bad for the seniors. Would have been such a treat to have a W for their last match at O'Keefe, especially going into Thanksgiving and on top of that, winning vs Stanford. They were ONE point away!!!
Sets 1-3 and some parts of 5 were electric.
I was thinking if they swept Stanford and play well enough vs Pitt, maybe, just maybe we could sneak in to host the tourney.
Stanford finally woke up just in time. Ugh. Tough tough loss.

4 straight 5 setter losses. And taking #6 Stanford and #1 Pitt to the wire. Tough pill to swallow. Really feel bad for the players and coaches.
Hope the ladies can take that frustration and let it explode in the tourney and hope the other teams will underestimate us based on our win/loss record.

The Volleybees play @ Tennessee on Thursday at 5:30. #7 seed.
They are having a send-off from the McCamish lot at 7pm tonight. I need to get in contact w/ the intown alumni association group - this would have been a great excuse to get 50+ people out to support the team and then walk across the 10th street bridge into Midtown for a bar takeover watch party for MBB vs. Oklahoma in the ACC/SEC challenge.

We had lost 4 tough 3-2 matches in a row against really good teams. Glad to see that we pulled this one out, and hopefully this tough 3-2 win gives us the confidence to get us rolling! We've played some of the best teams in the NCAA this year. Earlier in the year we were losing matches 3-0 against them. More recently, we've lost them 3-2. Hopefully now we start winning them 3-2 (I wouldn't mind 3-0, but at this point of the season anyone we play is going to be a battle...)
