Haley's First Volleyball Tournament


Last Saturday Haley and I were up bright and early to head to her first JO volleyball tournament of the season.
The first tournament of the year always has a question mark to it, how the girls will play, if they'll be ready and how the other teams are.
The Marshall 14-4 team started off strong and I was really impressed with how they played. Haley has improved dramatically from last year and is able to get up and block now, something a lot of girls here age are even close to doing.
The girls played awesome in pool play, going undefeated and earning the overall #1 seed for the tournament.
And then we waited.
And waited.
And waited.
We waited for almost 3 hours while the other pool finished and the first two tournament games were played.
The girls had to play a team they swept in pool play and this one ended much different.
Though they didn't medal, they played great and I'm looking forward to seeing how they do in Tracy tomorrow.
