Headhunter Award: Sanah, for serving so hard that it hit the libero in the head! That is just amazing. You served 2 at her before and they were just a little slower and had a downward movement, then that last one was faster and had a little float to it. Keep it up!

Heart Attack Award: Grace, for serving a ball that hit the tape, but had enough oomph and top spin that the ball bounced a little, rolled over and down for a 1/3rd Fish ace!

Selfish Award: Lizzy. There was a rally where you hit 5 out of the our 6 contacts and won us a point! Way to dominate!

Selfish is good, A Pair is Better: The ball was coming over and Grace tips it up… right to Lizzy, who dumps it over.

Marathon Award: Gabby M, for serving 14 points in a row! Excellent. I saw the scoresheet and they barely had a chance to play.

y=mx+b Awards: Grace, Gabby M and Riley for hitting line for points

Getting out of a Tight Spot Award: Carmen for saving a tight set and controlling your body to avoid the net

Slide Rule Award: Riley for hitting a slide on the left side and getting a point for it

Sneaky Foiler: Gabby M. They were trying to be sneaky and push a ball to the corner, but you foiled it by making an incredible pass.

Three is Enough: Gabby M, Gabby P, Carmen. The ball was hit deep, Gabby M saved it, but it was low. Gabby P was in perfect position to get the ball up and Carmen who was ready, got the ball over the net for us to continue the point. Plays like this totally deflate the other team, because they have their hopes up when a supposed winner gets picked up. Then they are further dismayed when our teammates make credible plays and get the ball back over! This “game within the game” doesn’t show up in the stats column, but makes such a difference in the W/L column.

Perfect Diving Pass: Gabby M, that ball was ticketed for the ground, you made your textbook dive and got the ball up

Deep Middle Award: Lizzy for transitioning well and putting yourself into a position to hitting middle hits.

Right is Right Award: Kat, for getting to the right position, then making the right play. The ball was sent to the right side, in traffic, you passed the ball up, right to Olivia. Passing from that side, in traffic, right on target, is super difficult. Good job, keep it up!

Best Away from the Ball Movement: Carmen for knowing that the pass was going to the spot where you and the setter were going. You ducked and got out of her way so she could the play going.

$0.00 Award: Sanah for getting faster and faster in Free Ball transition. When we needed it most you had transitioned and was in perfect position to pick up the free ball.

Best Imitation of a Tack: Chloe for making tack sharp passes. You make it look so easy. Your passing is so reliable and you make everyone else better.

Bob, the Builder Awards: Olivia, Grace, Kalyn, Lizzy for using blocks to build roofs

Bridge Awards: Olivia and Lizzy for hitting overpasses down for points, that is the controlled aggressive play that we’re looking for.

Plumber Award: Gabby M for hitting a pipe to the left corner for a point

Density Award: Gabby P, you serve such a heavy heavy ball, that is very difficult to return. Keep it up!

Left is Right Award: Olivia for hitting a lefty dump. Great job!

Thanksgiving Stuffing award: Lizzy for stuffing an overpass

Grit Award: Kalyn for tracking down a shanked pass that was easily 20 feet away! That “stick-to-it-ness” keeps us in the competition and gives us all a chance to win.

Low Bridge Award: Riley for consistently serving BBs bare inches over the net

Middle Middle Award: Carmen for effectively hitting the middle of the court from the middle.

Unconventional, but effective: Olivia, you passed a ball with your shoulder!

Girl Scout Award: Sanah for the vision to see that the campfire was available and you tipped it in! Excellent, way to use what the defense gives us.

Left is Right is Right Award: Lizzy. In one rally, you hit to the right T, but they were able to get it up, then in our next offensive turn, you hit to deep left corner to finish the point.

Mic Drop Award: Sanah for Serving an Ace on Set Point!

Poultry Award: Kalyn for earning 2! chickens!!!

Ice Cream Award: Gabby P for 4X effective serving after timeout calls!
