Last volleyball travel tournament for this part of the season!

Today Mason and I returned from his final travel volleyball tournament before the break for school volleyball in Los Angeles (thankfully not near the horrible fires).  The team had some curve balls thrown at them, with their head coach traveling to Arizona for a girls tournament happening the same weekend, and their assistant coach getting COVID.  So, they had someone who has helped coach before as their coach.  The first set of their first game on Saturday was more interesting because she was learning their rotation so things went a little wonky.  But overall they did very well, two wins and one loss on the day.  Here are some of my favorite photos.

On Sunday there were in a pool of four teams and had one win and two losses.  The final game was tough and they lost it in the third set.  

And on day three (elimination day) they started off with a great win!  The first two sets were super close and then they had a solid third set and got the win!  Their second game was also super close but they lost the game.  Very proud of them and coming out of the tournament with a rank of 19th out of 56 teams!  Well done!

Here is a video of Mason serving for the first set win in game one!  

And Mason had another key role in the second set of game one.  Here is that video - Mason had a nice hit over for the win!

 And now he gets ready for the school season!
