Here at the SFA vs SAM game...Greek and Family day, so there's a bit of a crowd. If it wasn't a special weekend, no one would be here.

This tv announcer is very very good.

Top notch.

This is how we are playing:

Debbie just slammed her notebook on the floor.

Enough said.

Debbie is challenging for a net violation. I didn't see one (I am here in person) but could be ...that last point was messy

Both teams are playing pretty bad. Luck has been on Sam's side. Gotta win this set tho.

Sam leads 2 sets to zip...this is going to be a quick game if SFA keeps playing like this.

Debbie is so frustrated and disappointed. That's a scary Debbie. Lol

Just watched the last 10 minutes. Wow. That was the worst I've seen us play in a long time. No rhythm at all. Setting, passing, and swinging all looked rough. Sam seemed to be striking way off the net. I wonder if that was a tactic to nullify out net D. Whatever's going on was working against us.

Like I said, both were playing not good but Sam was playing a little bit less 'not good' to win. Absolutely no rhythm for us...no calling "mine" for the ball. Just all around bad.

Yep. A bummer but better a wakeup call now than in the WAC tourney.

Good synopsis there. Just absolutely out of sync.

Strange seeing Sam in first place in volleyball, but there it is.

Every team has "one" of those days. We beat them at home, later in the season. Win the division.

Wow. What a 4th set. Wow.

Four set win over Lamar. Per Humphreys, Lamar is much better than their record, and they played their best today. "We were solid."

UTRGV takes a five set win over Sam. Three way tie for the division lead with 4-1 records.

We now go to Phoenix to play NM State, Utah Valley, and Grand Canyon on consecutive days. Fitness and depth will be tested.

Starting Thursday in Phoenix, we play:
  • NM State - 5-2
  • UVU - 5-2
  • GCU - 4-3

Sam plays the same three crossover matches in Phoenix. The other three teams in Phoenix play two matches over the three days.

UTRGV has two crossover matches that they play on Friday and Saturday in Beaumont:
  • Chicago State - 3-3
  • Seattle - 0-7

Still a long ways to go, but UTRGV has the favorable schedule. Our win at their place was big.

I watched the 5th set of last night's GCU vs. NM State's match on ESPN+. GCU beat NMS for the first time in several years. Neither team impressed me.

Getting hammered by NM State. So much for our Southland credentials…

I watched the 1st 2 sets over NMSU...theybwere closer sets than when we played SAM. We played a bit better than we did in Huntsville, but still not enough. Hopefully we find our groove today.

This really surprises me. There had to be a combination of things that caused this meltdown... lengthy travel, unfamiliar environment, unfamiliar opponent, etc.

Meltdown … really. Don't respond.
