Excessive Forespin

First Place

Fall Co-ed Volleyball at Seattle Central Tuesdays

Excessive Forespin a truly marvelous team not only in individual skills and talent but also in the overall fluidity of their teamwork. The Forespins started off their season and ended their season in one very similar aspect, but also in one very opposite one as well. The Forespins almost impeccable record of 8-1 shows the true strength and determination showed by each player towards the game. However there was always one team that stood in the way of their dream to be the champions and to win the shirt, mostly winning the shirt though. This team was the Uppers and Lowers, who was the only team to defeat the Forespins. However the story was completely different in the playoffs where the Forespins would meet their rivals one last time, just after playing a hard game of the semi-finals not minutes before.

This final meeting of the finals would decide the fate of the two top tier teams. Would it be a repeat of the first game of their seasons, or would the undefeated Uppers and Lowers finally meet their match by the hands of their first rivals. With a battle of 3 sets the answer was shortly realized. Now the 1st set was a strong victory made by the Forespins, spiking and blocking down any attempts the Uppers tried to make in victory, winning their set 25-17 the Forespins taking the lead to make it 1-0. However the Uppers were not going to make it easy for the Forespins fighting and taking the 2nd set by a close game of overtime 27-25, the Forespins fighting hard but just barely slipping into a loss. It was now 1-1, the intensity in the gym increasing exponentially. It was here the final set, the set that would decide it all. And it was one for the record books. Point after point, leads changing continuously, the Forespins would attack only to have the Uppers dig those attacks just to send them right back with greater intensity every time. Both team sweating and working double overtime to try and extend the lead. But slowly and surely the Forespins did just that, focusing on every single point, not looking too far ahead the Forespins beat their rivals and redemption was had, final score 25-18 Forespins are the Champions 2-1. Congratulation to the Excessive Forespins on now being the new Champions of Softcore 2015. #Wewontheshirts
