Late Fall Co-ed Volleyball at Seattle Central Thursdays

Karen "Fire Tiger" Lam showed up tonight with an unusual intensity. The source of which remains unknown (some think it was the alignment of the stars - others blame it on some spicy pre-game cocktail). Needless to say, she was a fiery ferocious feline hungry for some fun!
She became a one woman defensive masterpiece. She whipped back and forth in the backcourt so fast that she had the opposing team seeing stars. And let me tell you about stars: They're hot, they're dangerous, and they bring life to their solar system! Karen may not have been fueling an entire system of planets, be she was fueling her team tonight. She was pulling balls that seemed impossibly out of reach back into her team's grasp. In a single play she dug a ball in the left back of the court - then the right back of the court - and then even managed to dig a short tip. She was a Tiger tonight - a fiery hot tiger of volleyball defense. For this we would like to award Karen "Fire Tiger" Lam our Player of the Week!

This weeks Player Of The Week goes to Molly. Molly showed hustle and determination tonight against a tough opponent. Though her efforts may still have fallen short, her skills were definitely on notice. She had no fear getting her knees a little banged up and she sprawled to the ground countless times to dig a ball from the ground. Great passes led to easy offensive transitions. She had it all working tonight. The Wilson Wonderdogs were down a few players tonight, but the contributions of Molly enabled them to not miss a beat. Great job tonight Molly!

509 Block Party had to pull out all of the stops tonight in a nail biting face off against the Infectious Agents. 509 Block Party came into tonight expecting to play a potential double header but failed to do so when their first opponents forfeited. Kelli kept everyone on point as they waited an hour to face off against the 2nd seeded Infectious Agents. Mostly known as a pure passer, Kelli dominated the game at the net. She feared no spiker tonight as she jumped to contest every hit, usually getting a hand on the ball to slow it down. And when it was her time to hit, you could bring the whole team and she would still smack it over you. Kelli was also the main communicator, directing her team to the needed spots to put away the Infectious Agents. Well done Kelli. You and the rest of the 509 Block Party go and enjoy the holidays. Come January, get ready to take home that championship!
