  1. Going to Indy this week. Any one else going any where?
  2. Since we arnt allowed in the gym, the car ride home gives me all the information about practice. I heard that Nebraska was at practice last week and that Virgibia Tech and Kentucky were in the gym last night. Thats pretty good. All the girls are being watched now instead of one or two. I think that since these coacches were there already, then others will be coming too. Can't wait to see who turns up at our courts in Louisville.
  3. To all those that think I am pro K2 and anti KVA. I would love to hear the accomplishments and events that are happening at KVA. I think KVA is great for Knoxville. I also think KVA was great for K2. So lets hear from the KVA people. tell us how things are going and what's happening in your gym.
  4. We are going to the Bluegrass tournament in Louisville. All K2 Elite teams are playing in the open div. Should be a pretty good tournament. If I'm hearing correctly from the girls, The 13,15 and and 17 Elite teams are all seeded #1 in their pools. Pretty good!
  5. I didn't even know any teams from K2 and KVA played prior to this. It must have been 2 or 3 levels teams. We are talking Varsity. Yes the girls were very polite to each other. That's how it should be. Hopefully we'll get to see another K2 vs KVA match at the next power league. I will not bring it up if we win though. I don't want any one to get upset with me. I post when I want. I watch all my kids volleyball matches and in between taking them here and there I don't have much time to post. I try to post more since you miss me.
  6. For the high school coaches that read this board. I heard all weekend how some High School coaches are mad because they say K2 coaches are telling us parents not to play high school. Let me tell you right here and now. NOBODY is telling me what my daughter should and shouldn't do!!! If my daughter wants to play HS volleyball then she will, if she doesn't then she will not. NO ONE at K2 has ever told anyone not to play high school. I asked all of our parents this weekend if anyone from K2 has told them not to play and all said "no".
  7. BBV The two local clubs got together in a match this past weekend. The venue was the mideast power league. The k2 17 elite went 3-0 on Saturday and that put them against the KVA 17-1 team (their most talented team). The outcome was as expected 25-15, 25-19 K2. The first game was not close. the second game was a little close for a while and then K2 turned it up.Clubonly is correct when he/she says that one club wants to compete and get big time D1 scholarships while the other wants to play and have a fun experience. The 2 clubs may meet again in the 15/16 power league next time it comes up. The K2 15 Elite team was one win away from being ranked #1 in the nation this past weekend.
  8. Looks like both Knoxville clubs are going to President day tournaments. K2 to chicago and KVA to Nashville. Anyone compare the two tournament schedules?
  9. Good weekend for a lot of K2 teams. Most will not play this weekend. I was wanting our team to go to the A5 icebreaker and then I noticed that there will be no A5 1 teams at their own tournament. I guess we aren't going for a reason. Tournament field looks very weak!!
  10. Bratman Could you copy your last post and put it in the Bearden volleyball topic. What you say in it is VERY impressive.
  11. The one problem I see is that the News Sentinel has no idea of what is going on with volleyball in our area. I want to say they care, but every time I read the paper about volleyball it is a haphazard article. For instance. The pre season prep extra team had a girl on it from HVA that wasn't even on the volleyball team. Now they have in the paper that the libero from our school was an all state hitter. Who proof reads these articles? Do they REALLY care about volleyball or are they just going through the motions. The volleyball enthusiast in this area should push for the News Sentinel to CARE about volleyball. That's why I will be persuading mine not to play next year.
  12. Bratman That is what should be done. That's why your school has a volleyball tradition. Bearden hasn't had a good volleyball coach for a long time. They still don't. The Bearden coach didn't even recognize the seniors at the end of the year banquet. No way he recognizes the All State Picks. Especially this year. Only one girl from our team made it. The amount of All State recipients from your school really shows that your volleyball coaches have built a strong tradition at your school. My hat is off to them!!
  13. Congratulations to all the Knoxville girls! Volleyball in this area is becoming more and more important. I bet if you pulled up All State from 5 years ago it wouldn't have so many local players on it.
  14. Yes. I was told that he gave offensive and defensive awards last year. I would hate to think that he didn't want to give certain players awards but I'm leaning towards agreeing with you. Never thought of it like that. Can't believe he would do that but then again I can. This would go hand in hand with the rumors that are out there. Now I'm thinking the rumors aren't rumors....BBV you really hit a nerve on this one.
  15. Yes he gave some awards out after he got there. I was told he gave more out his first year. Didn't bother giving an offensive and defensive award out. That probably would have made him late for the end of his KVA meeting. Didn't talk about any of the seniors individually. He will next year though..Watch out who you walk over, they might just be standing at a door you need opened!
