Waiting to see how the game turned out, I went to Calif. Baptist Website to check out their team. Sorry, but there's a few old guys on that team too. Several over 25 and a few 28 year olds. If I remember correctly a soph or junior that was born in 77. So JR Martins isn't the only one, but since of their attention, he is the posterboy for older players.
Anyway, just wanted to point that out, but anyone out there who is listening or at the game, I'd love to know what is going on.

You do realize that Cal Baptist is a NAIA school that doesn't compete for the NCAA national title in volleyball? They, like D3 schools and club programs can have different rules! ;D

yes, I know, I was just pointing out that there were older players out there. I've been looking at a bunch of teams. There is alot more out there than I originally though. It doesn't mean it's good volleyball, but it is out there.

In addition, D3 schools do compete for the national championship, along with the big boys. If Clarke won the MIVA and UCSD won the MPSF, they would be in the final foour.

IMO the EIVA will have the first D3 team get in. Someyear, it will happen that Penn State won't rebuild fast enough...and they will lose their almost ritual return to the final four. PSU has alot of underclass studs stocked up...so if Springfield or Juniata is going to surprise...it better be this year.
