Late Summer Co-ed Beach Volleyball at Alki Mondays

Minh Tu came to the courts early to get some practice in before any teams started to show up. Once the game started she was more than prepared to face their opposing team, the Spikopaths. She has some great over the net serves and was getting down and dirty in the sand with unbelievable saves! She also did not let the small amount of rain affect her game. Keep up the great work Minh Tu and keep on practicing!

Alexa B. was seen diving, digging, serving, and setting all over the place with unstoppable ferocity. She was everywhere! She wasn't afraid to lay it all out on the court, and her tye-dye shirt definitely got dirty tonight! You rock, Alexa.

Ellie and her team were in a epic battle against Monkey Lovers which showed to be the game of the week for sure. Both teams had excellent spikers and net play. But one player stood out to be the X-Factor of the game and that was Ellie. Her digs were incredible, creating second opportunities for her team as she would dive to the sand to dig a spike from the Monkey Lovers. Not only were her digs fantastic but her dedication was undeniable. After a miss serve, she would get down and complete 5 push-ups as a punishment for herself because she expects nothing but the best from herself. With her awesome bumps and sets and even great swings, Ellie showed to be a major factor in taking the Monkey Lovers down to the wire. Great Job!

Nick Wichert led his team to a 2-1 victory over great We're BBST... and We Like To Party team. Nick has been a great captain for his team all season long and brought that same leadership to the championship game. Nick was force at the net as he dominated on offense and was equally good on the defensive side blocking. When the games were getting tight, Will Work For Sets continually turned to Nick to dig them out of a hole. Even the opposing team knew the ball was going to Nick, but that did not stop him from avoiding the outreached arms and sending the ball through the defense. Great job Nick, and congratulations on the win!
