Late Fall Midcore Volleyball at First Baptist Tuesdays

Mike came into the gym tonight rockin' an underdog sweatband on his head, I think that is reason enough!

Well, ok, I'll give you more. Mike was on fire tonight with scooping balls out of the net, or inches from the net, and back into play. While on many other occasions these low flying balls would fall to the floor, Mike was not about to let that happen on his watch. He also brought the heat at the net, sending many opponents running from the incoming ball. Mike's team was a little sparse tonight so I didn't get a full view of their skills, but if they all play at his level, they should be some pretty good contenders this season.

Allison played great, her sets were money and her passing was spot on. Although her team lost, what makes her player of the week is that when Goose's Avengers, the opposing team, didn't have enough players, she voulenteered to play with them until their player got to the gym. Go Allison!

In all of my years working for Underdog, I don't think I have come across a happier player. Nadia is constantly laughing, smiling and high fiving (both her teammates and opponents) when she is on the court. She makes the atmosphere of the gym lively and energetic. I can always count on enjoying the heck out of the match when Notorious D.I.G shows up for the evening, and it is in large part due to Nadia!
