Congratulations to Sam Siedlecki, you're the player of the week! This week Sam's attitude really stood out to me. I was so happy to watch her play volleyball this week. She was hitting the ball down getting some solid kills and racking up the points, On defense, she was passing well and setting the ball like an all-star! Here is an encouraging quote for you while you head into next few weeks!
“Press on – nothing can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Perseverance and determination alone are omnipotent.”
– Calvin Coolidge

Congratulations to James Lim on being the player of the week. James played really good games this week. He was very encouraging as well as being mentally prepared for each game. With his high energy, James was able to make great passes, sweet sets, and aggressive attacks. Not only was he playing well but he also was being goofy while keeping the games fun for his team. They were close to the winning the last game but barely fell short to a 25-27 loss. Great job this week James and good luck on next weeks games!

Along with Jamie's great plays at the net, and awesome serves, her contact slipped and she played most of the first game with only one eye functioning.

Her team, Bump, Set, Pow!, rallied around their fearless Captain, though she was still able to keep their spirits up! Jamie is an awesome Captain, and a True Underdog. If you get a chance, meet Jamie and ask for tips on one-eyed Volleyball!
