Ace Ventura: Set Detective

First Place

Late Fall Co-ed Volleyball at Seattle Central Thursdays

The Thursday night midcore league title could have gone to a number of teams. Entering into playoffs, there were 3 teams essentially tied for first place, with just a shade of standings differential. Those 3 teams faced off in the semi-finals and finals... no one team clearly would dominate the others. The question on everyone's minds: who will be the champs?!

During the semi-finals, Ace Ventura: Set Detective took on the number one seeded team, Tequila Mockingbird. This was a tense match that saw games one and two split between the two talented teams. Game three was close, but Ace Ventura: Set Detective had the power and was able to fend off Tequila Mockingbird. Two courts over, Night Court laid down the law, and secured their spot in the finals.

The final was just as competitive as you would expect from a two seed / three seed match up. Incredible play all around - hustle, ball control, unbelievable saves, and all-out effort. With over three years and 6 or 7 seasons under their belt, Ace Ventura: Set Detective was not effected by the title match pressure.

Thursday night ended with Ace Ventura: Set Detective adding a second title to their trophy wall! This "rag tag" and "festive" team knew they would finish strong. They attribute the seasons success to Christine ("she made this season possible") and to their collective ability to overcome absences.

Congrats!!
