Fall Midcore Volleyball at St Charles Tuesdays

Oh what a marvelous thing to have Brad Biddle on your front line! Brad + Ball = Bombs. No one has better kill factor at net than Brad and Tuesday at St. Charles was a spectacular night for this amazing player. Brad and Shaggin Balls teamed up for a 2-1 match victory over E! True Volleywood Story in their first game and a 3-0 match win over Take A Hit in their second game. And much of that success was due to Brad's steady and powerful A-game while protecting the net with incredible blocking and killing skills from the front row.

Samantha Geddes lets no opportunity get by her. While she excels in many areas on the volleyball court, she seemed to be especially on fire at getting her hands on the ball to keep it in play. A tip here, a tip there and then a fist pump everywhere, Samantha was relentless in pursuit of the ball. Setting is her specialty and her teammates rose to the occasion with finishing her assists with incredible kill style. She rounded out a fantastic night of play with scoring point after point from the service line. Take a tip from Samantha - use those digits for more than just texting and get on the ball!

Natalie earned this weeks player of the week with her big block and put back. When the other team was stunned at the amazing block, they watched and she finished the point by tipping it right back and down to seal the deal. Natalie was big at the net all night long and played a solid match. Great work Natalie!

This week's POTW goes to the dynamic duo, husband and wife team, Euclides (E) and Sarah Galvez. The couple made a HUGE contribution to their team, Toto, in Tuesday's playoff action at St. Charles. Facing their opponent, Take A Hit, E was magical in the front row with tremendous blocking and attacks. Sarah meanwhile, was busy at mid and back rows to provide the ups and assists on defense along with extremely accurate service. Their performances led to a Toto victory over Take A Hit. Moving up the playoff rung, E and Sarah kept the momentum going versus Shaggin Balls. This match didn't have the same outcome, and saw Toto's season come to an end. However, the big reason to celebrate these two is that they are going to be parents with Baby Galvez coming in June 2018. Perhaps next year at this time, E and Sarah will have the little one watching the folks as they excel on the hardwoods. Congrats E and Sarah!
