Brodie Bricker

Brodie's Ready to Get to Midcore Finals

Brodie Bricker of Some Spike It Hot must save his best play for the end of the season because he was practically flawless on Thursday at Tubman in the Midcore playoffs vs. Sets on the Beach. He is adaptive and effective at any position, but on Thursday's game, he played a terrific back row by keeping the ball in play no matter how deep back it fell. Rotate a few spots and now Brodie's up front at net where he launched an attack of kills on offense, so it appears that his defensive skills are perfectly aligned with the offense. Some Spike It Hot put the match in the win column with a 2-1 victory over Sets on the Beach and will return next week along with Brodie's energy and attention to detail on both offense and defense.

It's Unanimous - It's Jared!

Some Spike it Hot

Jared Davis was nominated for POTW for Tubman Midcore Thursday night by his fellow teammates and yours truly, and there was absolutely no denying his presence on court. Some Spike It Hot had the match of the year vs. Net Ninjas and Jared made some radically significant contributions in the effort. Some Spike it came out on top in a close one in the first match by a score of 25-23 behind Jared's stretch of powerful service equaling many points scored. He was also effective at net with a couple killer blocks against a very aggressive Ninjas front row. This momentum was perfect for Some Spike It's energy in the third set where they traded numerous rallies with the Ninjas and Jared in the thick of things. What a standout effort by Jared and it didn't go unnoticed!
