Club Tournament 3!

Another tournament has come and gone! This one was a little different because both Noni and Boo's boyfriend, N, got to come with me! Noni and I left church a little early and met up with N on the way. We got there in time to see the last morning game and it was a little rough. They weren't playing as well as they usually do and ended up losing in two sets. Then they got their lunch break and were able to eat and relax for a bit. It was so nice having Noni there because even though there was still snow on the ground it was sunny and beautiful and we were able to go for a long walk.

We came back for their first afternoon game and it was against one of the better teams, but the food and rest must have been just what they needed because they really stepped it up! The first set was a little rough with a 13-25 loss, but then the second game they went after it and ended up winning 27-25! The third set they really blew them out of the water with a 15-7 win! 

 

 

Boo had a couple of good serving runs. 

 

 

 

Some great saves. 

 

 

And some awesome hits and blocks! 

 

 

They weren't expected to win and it was a hard fought game but they pulled it off! 

 

 They didn't have another game on the schedule, in fact they were supposed to work the following game, but since they won the other team had to work and they got to go to a different court to play another game. I grabbed this picture of Boo and N while we were waiting to hear if we were going to play again. So cute. :) 

 

 

 They were excited to play another game and were ready to go! 

 

 

 

The other team pulled off the first set, but then we rallied and won the second. Then they were ready for a third. 

 

 

 

I didn't get any pictures because I was too into the game. It was back and forth and they had to go into...overtime? Lol I don't think that's what it's called in volleyball. Maybe it's just extra points. They would go up by one, then we would go up by one, back and forth several times, but the other team ended up pulling off the win. It was a hard fought game! We were the only two teams left in the whole gym by the time they finished. We had been done by 3:45 at the previous tournament but at this one it was after 5 before we finally got out of there. I'm glad we got to watch an extra game though! One more tournament to go!
