Home Game vs Mendocino Community College 10/15/2010

A little late getting to the game, but we made it in time for the first serve.  We're getting good at this photo finish for the start of the games:)  Tonight we play Mendocino from up along the northern CA coast.  This team is the farthest away from us distance wise and when we have to go play them, it will be an all day trip.  But tonight they are in our house!

Game 1:  Mendocino will start with the serve.  Long rally to start it off, but Mendocino gets one down, 0-1.  Mendocino serves long, 1-1 with Judy to serve.  Ace!, 2-1.  Alisha puts one in the net, 2-2.  Mendocino serves long again and i'ts 3-2 with Alisha to serve.  We make a bad pass, 3-3.  Another long rally and Hailey gets one down, 4-3.  Hailey to serve.  Long rally and Mendocino gets one, 4-4.  Bad serve receive, 4-5.  Net serve, 5 all with Taylor to serve.  Mendocino hits one out, 6-5.  Brit hammers one home from the right side, 7-5.  K9 gets one off the block, 8-5.  Ace by Taylor, 9-5.  Mendocino hits out, 10-5.  Taylor serves long, 10-6.  Brit gets another one from the left side this time, 11-6, K9 to serve.  Mendocino can't get it back to us, 12-6.  Megan gets one down, 13-6.  A tip by Alisha goes down, 14-6 and Mendocino wants a timeout to talk it over.  Mendocino gets a tip to go in, 14-7.  They get another one in, 14-8.  Alisha gets one off the block, 15-8 with Megan to serve.  Mendocino hits long, 16-8.  Bad passing on Mendocino, 17-8.  Mendocino hits the antenna, 18-8.  Ace by Megan, 19-8.  Hailey hammers one down in the middle, 20-8 and another timeout by Mendocino.  Another Ace by Megan, 21-8.  Brit hits one long, 21-9.  K9 gets stuffed and it's 21-10.  Alisha gets it back and puts one down, 22-10 with Judy to serve.  Lift call on us, 22-11.  Mendocino serves long, 23-11 with Alisha to serve.  Hailey puts one in the net, 23-12.  K9 goes wide on a rip down line, 23-13.  Taylor ends a long rally, 24-13 with Hailey to serve.  Mendocino can't handle the serve and it's a 25-13 win for Yuba.

Game 2:  Megan will start us off serving. Well, I'm back.  I HATE Windows and their silly restarts that happen on auto when it downloads an update!  Right in the middle of typing, the whole system shut down.  As we return to the action it's 13-7 and there have been some really good rallys while we were away waiting on the computer to come back up.  Back to live action as K9 rips one to make it 14-7.  Taylor serves long, 14-8.  Long rally and Brit finishes it off, 15-8 with K9 to serve.  Brit gets one over that Mendocino can't handle, 16-8.  Mendocino hits long, 17-8.  Alisha hits long, 17-9.  Alisha gets one down on a set from Brit, 18-9 with Megan to serve.  Long rally with some great hits and digs but Mendocino gets it to fall, 18-10.  Ace by Mendocino, 18-11.  They serve in the net, 19-11 with Judy to serve.  Mendocino can't handled the serve, 20-11.  And the next one is the same, 21-11.  We are in the net, 21-12.  We put one in the net, 21-13.  Mendocino puts one in the net, 22-13 with Alisha to serve.  Bad set puts Hailey in the net, 22-14.  Mendocino puts a block on hailey, 22-15.  K9 rips one down, 23-15 with Hailey to serve.  Ace by Hailey, 24-15.  Taylor dumps one on them for the winner.  25-15 Yuba. 

We seem to be playing a little better tonight.  Not nearly as many self inflicted wounds and it's showing.  Mendocino has some good defense but they just don't have a lot of firepower on offense.  But they do make us work for every point. 

Game 3:  Mendocino to serve.  Taylor sends one deep and it's 1-0 with Judy in to serve.  Hailey launches a missile down the middle, 2-0.  Ace by Judy, 3-0.  Mendocino gets one down, 3-1.  Deshawna gets one down, 4-1 with Alisha to serve.  She puts it in the net, 4-2.  K9 rips one down line for 5-3 with Hailey serving.  K9 gets a block for a kill, 6-2.  Megan gets in on the action and it's 7-2.  Hailey serves a bad one, 7-3.  K9 gets it back with a kill, 8-3 with Taylor to serve.  Mendocino hits it in the net, 9-3.  Ace by Taylor, 10-3.  And another one! 11-3 and it's timeout Mendocino.  Taylor still serving.  We make a bad pass and can't recover, 11-4.  Hailey gets one from the back row, 12-4.  K9 to serve.  Megan gets one, 13-4.  Another long rally but Megan finishes it, 14-4.  K9 still serving.  Ace Ace Baby! 15-4.  Brit puts one in the net, 15-5.  Mendocino puts one in the net, 16-5 with Megan to serve.  Mendocino hits long, 17-5.  Hailey gets a tip to go down, 18-5.  Hailey and Deshwana stuff one to end a long rally, 19-5.  Mendocino hits long, 20-5.  Megan still serving.  Hailey gets stuffed on a C, 20-6.  We get called in the net on a block, 20-7.  Hailey goes Hammertime on them, 21-7 with Judy serving.  Mendocino hits long, 22-7.  Another kill by Hailey makes it 23-7.  Taylor gets a swing and makes it count, 24-7.  Mendocino gets one to go down and stop the run, 24-8.  They serve long and it's a 25-8 win.
