Elyse's JV Volleyball - Up and Down - Now Done - Finishing up With Varsity

Check out that arm muscle! (Elyse number 14)
Elyse also had her last official JV volleyball game of the season. They went in playing Waukon with a win against them already this season but could not pull off a win last night.  It was a stressful night full of backrow errors, troubled sets, and just off.  It was too bad because they had just played the night before and won....oh well.....that's the joy of volleyball for Crestwood....you never know what is going to happen.  The night before had been a super night for all, including Elyse, as she has been working on her "quick hits" and doing awesome with them!  My favorite part of the matches is when she has a kill on a quick set and turns around so pumped!  Great moment to see her so excited and loving what she is doing! (Credit that to her coaches and Lindsey Sir for working with her on that.  Thanks Lindsey!)

So her JV games for the season are over.  She will continue to go with the varsity, hoping to get some more game time before the season is official over for Crestwood.  She is sad to see it almost end as she knows she has some "conditioning" to do before basketball starts.  Although her arm muscles have "bulked" up, she doesn't realize her running hasn't.  :)  Lucky her.

This weekend the varsity heads to the conference tournament....which could be a long day for all involved or it could be a great day.  Again, one never knows.  Then after a week of practice they face New Hampton, a team we went 5 games with, in the first round of Regionals. 

Great season of JV volleyball Elyse!  It's been a fun season to watch....amid the frustrations as well.  :)  But we love yeah!!!!
