Stacey Gordon's team wins...

[sIsam]

Eczacibasi wins 3-1 at home against Yesilyurt. After a slow start to the match the team won the next three sets comfortably. 22-25, 25-8, 25-20, 25-20 was the final set results.

Eczacibasi, playing without Katie Wilkins, was led by Neri Ozsoy's 25 points. Gordon added 22 for the team. An important win for the club, coming a few days after they parted ways with the team's starting setter, Bahar Mert. 15 year-old Naz Aydemir, YNT and JNT setter for Turkey, assumes the full time setting duties.

Nice to see that Naz Aydemir gets so much playing time at this young age. From what I saw of her I am sure she gets the job done very well even on that high level!

They did run this play a few times and quite effectively I should say. Gordon had some kills yesterday that I could have sworn dug up a hole on the taraflex ;D It
was great to watch!

For anybody who has seen her on the court there should not be any doubt what she is capable of vball wise. The only problem that she might have is the pressure when she sees the ‘big names’ standing on the other side of the net (she’s only 15). I hope she will fare well there…….most likely she has already broken the record for the youngest starting setter whose team is playing in IECL.

On a side note: the fact she is starting makes me sad because it makes her ineligible to play in NCAA ….it would have been interesting to see all ‘major league’ coaches lined up in front of her door ;D
