Second game: Better, but not there yet!

Isn't this a blast from the past! Sadly, it's the only pic I have in digital format from my "golden era" of volleyball. I should really scan all the prints I have, since they are fun to look at. Oh, to be 21 again! Well, I really don't want to be 21 again. I just want to be able to play like I'm 21 again. :)

We had our second game tonight. Since my sports goggles aren't ready yet (some "mishap at the lab" with my lenses, they told me this morning), I wore my regular glasses. It wasn't so bad, and I could actually see! Oh, sweet, sweet vision!

We ended up losing the match, but WE WON A GAME! And it was my kill that gave us game point! It felt fantastic. The team we played was much different than last week's team. This team was stronger at the net with a consistent hitting & blocking presence. Definitely my kind of play--I was actually able to play at the net, jousting and blocking. I had one awesome solo block. But my blocking percentage was probably still in the negative, considering my errors. And I didn't get many sets, so I didn't hit much (except for that one game-winning kill), but oh well! At least it was FUN tonight. And while our passing (mine especially) needs definite improvement, we are coming together better with each game.
