Week one is never an easy week for an indy team. Unless you happen to be the indy team now known as Stranger Danger. This team of strangers is quite dangerous on the volleyball. They used all-hustle, skill and communication to cruise to a 3-0 record to start the season. They helped prove once again that the team that has fun togethe wins together.
There were definitely a lot of new faces on the court tonight. Great competition with a mix of new team molding filled the air. Brandon Nash is a regular and IgoNoUgo fits like a glove. Brandon helped carry his team to two wins to triumph over Strangers on the Court. One person that Brandon had to hit well against was Strangers on the Court new big guy. His head almost reaches over the net; definitely a great new addition to Strangers. Brandon jumped out of the gym to slam a few good ones home. His presence was greatly felt tonight and every night! Way to go IgoNoUgo!
It was a great night for The E True Volleyball squad. They walked away with a strong sold win 3-0. I think we all witnessed the love they had for Isabelle DuPont at the end of the game, who is leaving Portland to head to San Fransisco. She will be missed. Her dedication for three solid seasons was very much appreciated and her team will miss her dearly. Player of the week goes out to Isabelle, the enforcer that can never be replaced...good luck in your new ventures!
Mr.Nash had a stellar game at the net last night. His presence is always felt. IgoNoUgo is always out to have a good time. Playing as a team comes second nature to this squad. Team work obviously leads to victories and Brandon helped tremendously in those wins!
Bad News Beers was on a role last night! Everyone came with their A Game for sure. Without a doubt, Joe helped with the ongoing momentum on defense and offense. His supportive attitude and constant support of teammates never went unnoticed. All three games were pretty close, but Bad News Beers came out on top. I'm tempted to change the team name to Good News Beers! Winning!
There are some people that just lead by example. Eric Stuck is the glue for It's Gotta be the Shoes. He's a triple threat in so many ways. He's not the loudest guy on the court, but his presence is always felt. He's always encouraging before and after games, no matter the outcome. Last night consisted of some pretty close games but Eric and his team came out on top! Let's see if this team can bring it to the playoffs next week...I'm betting they will!
The E! True Volleyball Story forfeited to IgoNoUgo.
IgoNoUgo forfeited to Stranger Danger- Indy #1.

POTW: Manny Franklin
Six Ladies and a 'Stache
Manny's ability to rock bacon socks couldn't save him from the demise of his veteran kickball shorts. One lunge later and the damage was done, much to the amusement of his teammates. Who knows, maybe Manny will start a new fashion trend: bacon shorts!
It was title time and Allison's game proved she was title worthy. Season long improvement put her in the postion to lead her team to victory. When she wasn't running off numerous service points in a row she was busy digging balls out of obscurity and setting up teammates for killer shots. It was a great effort at the end of a great season.
