My volleyball team went to the state tournament this past weekend, and it was a blast. We all played Amazingly..the best we've played all season actually. And it was just like Fantastic. :)
We(Varisty) ended up getting 2nd in State! Whoo Hoo! The other teams were not expecting this out of us, and I think we kind of took them by surprise. And boy were they shocked :) Especially Fayetteville...who are basically our arch rivals...who beat us both times during the season, and came into the tournament with what I like to call a cocky head..haha. Well. we beat them. And oh was it GLORIOUS. They were so ticked at us and each other by the end of the game, and we just played above and beyond what any one was expecting...it was great!! :)
It's funny to see the way people act when they're not on top anymore. Friday leading up to the Fayetteville game (which was the last one of the day, at like 8pm) Fayettville was all friendly, friendly in the hall ways and gym, congratulating us when we beat another team that afternoon, and just saying hi, and good luck in the hall ways, Smiling when we walked by, whooting " yeaa goo east!" (the conference is divided into teams from the east coast and the west coast..and then the best team from each side play each other for the championship) Well. the next day on Saturday, after we had beat them the night before, They wouldn't even look at us in the hall way. Didn't say a single word to us the whole day. And then Saturday night when we made it to the championship they all cheered against us for the West team.
It was all go East! go east! when they were expecting to be the top team in the East. But how quickly the tables turned, and they were whooping go West! haha. The whole thing just makes me laugh. And it really just shows a teams character...sore loser's much? :p
But the whole thing doesn't really matter..because you know what?! We beat Themm...and it basically made our whole teams weekend....heck I'm still smiling about it! :)
But there is on down side to the tournament...it means the end of the season.
So Volleyball season is over...and this does not make me happy.
