Thanks for the updates Kurt. Not looking good, but damn we are putting up a fight.

What's crazy is that if the Cougs get one kill at the critical moment in each of the first two sets....they sweep the Cardinal. Instead, they are hanging by a thread. Margins against a team like Stanford are razor thin.

Unfortunately, when we couldn't close the deal in set #2, I told my wife that the match was over....the only issue was what the final margin would be. Ladies can be proud though...they are clearly good enough to make a deep run in the NCAA tournament.

Poo. F-ing eggheads. Oh well - have fun flying to the East Coast for your road matches next year.
