Happenings of Note:
1. Myriah & Catherine receiving WIAA/Seattle Times State Athlete of the Week for 1B in consecutive weeks.
2. Had to forfeit a game due to the fact that I played a girl 6 games in a night. This one makes me feel a whole lot stupid. I guess we all make a mistake like that once in awhile. Shows how badly I need an assistant. I self-reported so we're not in that big of trouble but still....it hurts.
3. Terrier Invite Champion...again! Woo! 2 years in a row we dominate this tournament. We defeated Kings Way in the championship in 5 games. I'm pretty sure it only went 5 b/c we were all getting sick. Which leads to...
4. Had to cancel and reschedule our home Seton Catholic game due to the fact that my entire team was sick. We played that next Thursday against Vancouver Christian. We dropped the first game due to the rust that had accumulated since the last time we touched a ball as a complete team 5 days before. But we won in 4. VC's assistant coach said he thought they could take us. I said good for him b/c if he didn't have that desire and drive then he shouldn't be coaching.
5. I feel like this should've come up before #5 but oh well. We've more than achieved my expectations that I had coming into the year. Maybe that's because I was a whole lot worried about how we were going to look. We're playing well. Against Seton at the Terrier Invite, we played amazingly well. I was so giddy that game because we looked so darn good. Everything was clicking. It was pretty.
6. If we win out -- beat Seton & Kings Way -- next week, then we get a 1st round district home game.
All in all, I'm pretty excited about this season. The Daily News is supposed to do a story about how loud our gym is next week. Not really thrilled that that is the angle they're taking and I need to make sure I voice that. They said volleyball will definitely be in there but I want the angle to be volleyball not our gym noise. So the question becomes--should I just be happy with the fact that a daily news reporter will be in our gym next week? Hum....
