#VOLLEYBALLIN

6:10 (1) RIDE MY PONY   vs  (4) THE WEASELS
 
     Can the PONY express continue to dominate the way they did in the regular season? They showed that with they are the team to beat.
However, the WEASELS have been super solid in the 2nd half of the season, and don't expect anything less tonight from them. They have found a winning formula, and have beaten the top teams this season as well.

6:55pm  (2) AVOID THE FALLOUT  vs  (3) NET LOVE

  Can ATF get a championship in the 2015-16 season? They were stopped short last season, and feel like they have the team to get there. In order to win, they will have to beat the reigning champs, who won out of this spot last season, and looks ready to make another championship run

   

Will the LOVE go back to back?

Here's the recap of Wednesday Quarterfinal Match ups

ATF feelin a certain way; is this their year? 

(1) RIDE MY PONY sweeps CHILL N SERVE
 PONY came our strong and set the tone, winning the game and the series and moving on to the final four. The games were close, but PONY handled biz.

(2) AVOID THE FALLOUT  sweeps (7) CONSTANT CHAOS
 In the battle of week 9, ATF swept a game CHAOS squad to move on.

(3) NET LOVE defeats BURKS 2-1
In a emotionally charged game, NET LOVE won the first, and BURKS snagged the 2nd, setting up game 3.
    NET LOVE was able to bounce back and show the championship resolve to win game 3 as they will move to the Final 4. Can they repeat as champs?

(4)  THE WEASELS squeeze past MAKE UP SETS 2-1
   The WEASELS continued their rise up the LIGA Rankings after pulling out a big victory over MAKE UP in a thrilling 3 set victory. After both teams won a game, the entire game 3 was a battle, but a couple key plays by the WEASELS decided the game.
 WEASELS will reach LIGA FINAL 4 for the first time.

Due to schedule change heres the final schedule for the week.


Here's the Final Rankings for Wednesday,  and the match ups for the Quarterfinal matchups on Wednesday Night:

(1) RIDE MY PONY             19-5  - 
 PONY rode a hot start all the way to the Regular Season Title, their 1st ever; can they win it all?


(2) AVOID THE FALLOUT  19-5 -  
ATF has been on fire and finished out winning 9 straight to tie for LIGA regular Season title. How will the playoffs end for the former Champs? 


(3) NET LOVE                      16-8 - 
NET LOVE won a big final series to move into 3 spot, which is ironically the spot they won the title from last season. Could it be back to back for NET LOVE?


(4) THE WEASELS           13-11 -  
THE WEASELS made some noise late in the season, and finished in 4 spot.  Can they get to their first ever LIGA Final Four?


(5) MAKE UP SETS          12-12  -  
Can MAKE UP SETS find their rhythm?  The regular season Champs from last season has had a up and down season to say the least.  


(6) BURKS                          8-16  - 
 In their worst season in a long time, can BURKS turn it around? Inconsistent play has hurt the former champs. They still have championship talent, but can they pull it together before it's too late?


(7)  CONSTANT CHAOS  5-19  - 
Can CC get a much needed win in the playoffs? They haven't quite had the season they wanted, but have been in most games. Can they get the upset and move to LIGA FINAL 4?


(8) CHILL N SERVE          5-19 -
 CNS had played well this season despite the record. Of not for a couple bounces here and there, they could be higher up in the rankings.. nevertheless,  they have a chance to do something special, with the talent they possess.

Week 9
Schedule & Recap

(6:10PM) AVOID THE FALLOUT   vs  CONSTANT CHAOS  -
 In a potential quarterfinal matchup, ATF needs to win all three in order to tie for the regular season title. Constant Chaos needs to win to stay out of a tie for 8th place, so both teams will be in "Playoff Mode."


(7pm)   NET LOVE    vs THE WEASELS

  In what should be a very good match up, both teams have the same record so whoever wins the match up will get the higher seed. With both teams knowing each other, this should be a classic "Rivalry" game.
Weasels have been playing lights out of late; can they stop the defending champs?


OPEN PLAY
7:45-8:30  (Open practice or play- for Wednesday teams only)

If any teams who don't play in Week 9 who would like to play or practice,  the gym is available until about 9.
Would be responsible for assistance of taking net down.

(2) BUMP & GRIND  19-5  -

SUAB  started slow, but finished strong to move into 3 spot and show optimism that they could win another LIGA Title.

 HIT FACED  came out this season and became a team to be reckoned with; Could FACED, who could quite possibly be the most talented team in the LIGA, get to their first LIGA 4?
