Looked really solid in that 2-set win over AUS, Avery has dropped some weight it appears, going for the slightly leaner Gibb/Casey body vs. Captain America/Stoklos muscle. Nicely done boys.

405LAX:
“2 teams with no shot of winning as neither has a legit blocker. Zaun/Roberts for obvious reasons but Avery just isn't remotely dominant enough at the net for play at the elite level.”
Hmmm

But let's remember it was a ONE STAR event, this won't be happening in Florida. |

5 years ago, if you asked me who'd be better between Avery and Trevor, I'd probably chosen Avery.
He's a smooth player, just hasn't had the luck of the Top tier partner draw.

No, they played in a watered-down tourney against low-tier international teams. Win is a win but there is clearly an asterisk, let's not get carried away. |

You said they didn’t have a shot at winning.

You said they didn’t have a shot at winning. Yes, stand corrected but let's not pretend you (or anyone) suggested they'd win, that's just silly talk. |

I didnt think they would win but totally congrats to them because the team they beat in the finals is pretty good. Yes not a top 25 fivb team but pretty good. They should of beat Phil and nick I think it was last year

Also when they won it chase seemed like he had won a bunch before. Was pretty calm cool and collective. Kinda cool to see from such a young guy.

That's one of Chase's huge pluses, he doesn't get too high or too low, never looks panicked on the court. Read my posts, always been a big fan of "Ledge". |
