Middle School Volleyball has Kicked Off!

Today the middle schools in the area kicked off the boys volleyball season with a tournament!  It was an exciting way to start the season and it was even more exciting because our nephew is also playing!  He attends a different middle school in the area but all the schools where there, and it was crazy action!  I was thankful for the updates as the tournament started and went on, and Matt got there about half way through the preliminary round to get more updates too!  The boys with their dad's (note - Tom is closer to the camera so he looks taller)

A clip of Mason serving (it is a trend!) from the first game!  (Thank you April!)

And more Mason serving!  

And a good photo of Mason during a game!  

After the preliminary rounds, the top teams went on to the next round (eliminations!) and they squeaked in with a 4-4 record (tie breakers were in their favor!).  

In the first elimination game they won the set 15-11 and mason served for the last two points!  Here is the last point:

The next game they played it was out of 25 point.  Mason was in and out of the game and they won 25-15 and made it to the final round!  

The final round they won 25-18!  They hit a good grove in time for the elimination rounds and it was exciting that Mason was in for most of that play!  

The bar got set high and it will be exciting where it takes them this season!
