Last weekend, the CSM volleyball team headed down to good 'ol Branson, Missouri to play their first conference match of the '08 season against College of the Ozarks. On Thursday, after a wonderful what seemed like a ten hour drive down there, the girls were off to bed to catch some Z's before their early morning practice the next day.
Friday morning's practice was a quick and to the point. We were ready to give C of O some "heat". But first.... we had our team lunch at the one and only Bob Evans. If any Flame fans are down in the Kansas City or Branson area, I would HIGHLY suggest eating there. Okay, Mr. Bob Evans is not going to get free advertising here, so moving on...
FRIDAY NIGHT....game night! Talk about a roller coaster game! The Flames definitely gave the Bobcats some competition from the start. With aggressive serving and tough blocks, Ozarks wasn't going to get us without a fight. Ties are not allowed in the game of Volleyball and the first game's score made it to 26-24 with the Flames coming from behind. Unfortunately, losing the next three games.
All in all, learning different strengths & weaknesses that we are able to continue or work on is something we can take from that match. It was a great prep game for what other conference challengers will bring. Also, going down to MO brought an amazing experience of eating Bob Evans! :)
GO FLAMES!
