Motade executed 60% of her attacks on Thursday and Friday nights. (A hitting percentage over 25% is considered excellent, and an average hitting percentage is below 20%.)

SOU Volleyball will play at home against OIT this Wednesday night.

One of the keys to blocking a field goal attempt is to jump between the kicker and the uprights. Not like this…

Where to watch football in Ashland

Of course if you want live football, AHS is the place to be today. However, after today’s SOU game you may want more. Or maybe you are a fan of the NFL and want to watch with a crowd instead of by yourself in your living room.

The #3 Ducks play #7 Michigan State after the Raiders’ game this afternoon. The obvious choices of places to watch the game in Ashland are Red Zone, Louie’s, Northwest Pizza, or Omars. However, if you have been to any or all of these places on game day you know that the crowds can be too big, and the service can become very slow.

A new option is Club 66. Uzi has five or six TVs going now, with up to three different DirecTV stations playing simultaneously, including a 10′ projection screen. He also has 6 beers on tap (and more in cans and bottles). But this next item may be the clincher for some of you. Pitchers of ANY beer (including Ninkasi’s Total Domination IPA and other micro draft beers) are just $10! That’s about the cost of two pints at the other places.

The Sunday breakfast deal is also a bargain.

…so do the Grizzlies and my daughter is on that team. 6:45 is the supposed start time (but they frequently start late if JV plays longer than expected).

The good news is I can make Friday night’s SOU game which also starts at 7.

Freshman Keegan Lawrence won’t start college for more than four weeks, but he already has rushed for two touchdowns, and the Raiders first game is only half over. SOU leads Menlo 34-0.

You can watch him run next Saturday in Ashland.

Raiders improve record to 5-1
