(from Lisa) In The Bank went 1-2 despite fierce competition and intense volleys :-)
(from Dave) It was a muggy Mon. evening there on the lower wetlands at the southern end of Lake Calhoun, but not humid enough to dampen our enthusiastic spirits. 3 games to 25 with rally scoring, what a workout! We matched the other team toe to toe, but in the end they triumphed over our 'Top Gun' skilled team. We, however, wouldn't let them shut us down, we took the last game. It's 'cause the pressure was off! Chris Delany aka spiker, sure gave them a 'pounding' for the money! Amy always pulling it out of the clutch! There's talent here! We're just warming up! (Though it doesn't take long with the weather!)

(Overall: 1-2)

(from Amy) Okay, it wasn't that bad (it could have been worse). The heat & knee high grass had a lot to do with it plus they had 7 people and we had 5 - so they were able to have breaks and rest up. We just sweated. Leah gave up half way through the first game, I was being silly and laughing too much, Dave had some illegal calls but also some legal ones, Carson was able to get his serves in but once they returned the ball we could do anything to help him out, and Lisa had some good sets. End of story. (Overall: 1-5)

Who rocks the house? Leah rocks the house! In a game that had five total participants (yes, two from Definity (Leah & Pat) and three on the other side of the net)... Isaacson continually brought the hammer leading DH to it's first three game sweep of the season. Choo Choo... this team's starting to get rolling (Overall: 4-5).

As "Steel Tips" Ackerman says... the fewer the better. This week DH double there attendance totals (to a whopping four (one of which, Jessi Nikko, wasn't even DH... but she still rocked)), and still manage to beat a team of six v-ballers in some darn sticky, hard-to-breath air. I may have been talking who-ha last week... but now we're really starting to roll. (Overall: 7-5)

Well, this week we had four (two from DH, a friend of DH, and a member of the other team that felt sorry for us (even though we could have done without her)). Maybe fewer isn't always better as DH got back to its old ways dropping all three. Just a minor bump in the road. See you all next week though, right? (Overall: 7-8)

Yipee! We won all three (makes you wonder how good that other team was, huh?)... oh, but I forget, we had to forfeit because we didn't have enough women (anyone feeling guilty?). Oh well... a fun night was had by all. One more week and then play-offs... start getting that game into shape. (Overall: 7-11)

You know, didn't play too bad. The boys (Carson and Dave) were blocking and bringing it at the net, the gals (Amy and Hatti) were scrappy as ever... we just ran into a buzz saw a hitting, blocking, passing, setting, serving, digging, water drinking buzz saw Dropped three more. Oh well... off to the play-offs. (Overall: 7-14).

Well, surprisingly.... we forfeited once again. Picked up a couple of gals and played our opponents pretty tough, but won't be advancing to the second round. (Overall: 7-16)
