Volleyball- So Much News!

So the volleyball team has been making incredible improvements in the last weeks. This week we faced upper cape tech in a match and one 3-1. This means that we lost our first match but were able to comeback and win three in a row to beat them in a best of five match. In the first game I didn't play as well and I sent the ball into the net twice which is a horrible move. This just shows me that this is something that I really need to work on. I am going to talk to my coach about doing net drills because sending the ball to the net is pretty much a fatal move in volleyball for losing a point. I then played in the third game and played much better. My momentum was up and I made good passes that did not land in the net and sent the ball over a couple times. I am very pround to be one Sturgis Storm Volleyball and am pround of my team for playing a great game and winning our first match ever.

In practices I have been playing okay. One thing I have seen improvement in is that I have found my serve. I have stoped serving over hand but am not serveing underhand either. I learned a side derve which just works for me. It gives my serve more power and is more intiminating then a underhand serve. My serve is still not perfect but so much more improved. I would say that during free serve drill I now get the ball over 80% of the time which is such an improvement over the 20% I was serving at the begining of the season. Now that I alsomost have serving down I want to work on saving the ball when it lands in the net.
