My random, desktop image of the day comes from two and a half years ago. Elliott will be killing it for SOU volleyball soon.

Day one of three of this massive tournament begins in Reno, Nevada in a few minutes. We are the #12 seed but hoping for a top ten performance.

I spent today watching volleyball at SOU (although today’s photo is from last month). Although most of the teams were Southern Oregon club teams, one was made up of mostly SOU volleyball players and alumni. It was fun watching my little (6’2″) 16-year old (#4 in this photo) go up against players like Sarah Holgen and Paulla Pinheiro.

Next up (March 27-29, 2015) is a tournament in Spokane, Washington during spring break.

mOcean volleyball

Today is the 17U mOcean Volleyball Club’s second tournament in Grants Pass (North Valley High School). At the last tournament, in Santa Clara, there weren’t any familiar foes, but most of today’s games will pit girls against former and future teammates as there is representation from about six or seven different high schools on this mOcean team.

mOcean Volleyball Club’s 2015 17U team at the California Kickoff

After just four practices, mOcean’s 17U team fared well in their first time playing competitively as a group, ending the tournament with a 12-3 mark. (The girls usually play against each other as they are from seven different high schools in California and Southern Oregon, but this is their first time working together.) They have two local tournaments to iron out some kinks before heading south again for the President’s Day weekend tourney in San Mateo next month where they will likely face some of the same (mostly SF Bay Area) teams.
