 Pedro Azenha had 6 aces yesterday against USC. I know USC is not the best passing team, but this is still a nice mark. Watching him go back and rip that serve I think he has to be one of the toughest in the country. Who else has this dangerous weapon?

Yuval Katz. No contest. Best jumpserver ever to play volleyball in the U.S. collegiate game.
I'll never forget the serve he hit Brant Chillingsworth with in the chest during an MPSF tournament semifinal match at Pauley Pavillion back in 1995.
As far as the best jumpserver in the USA today, that is hands down Clay Stanley. No one else even comes close.

Pedro is second in the nation in aces, right behind Nils D. of Pacific. The MIVA has 6 guys in the top ten and none of them are from Lewis, IPFW or Ball State!

Dauburs increased his lead a bit this weekend going 7 aces for 5 games against UCLA and 4 for 3 games at UCI... Brings his avg up to .88 or so, way ahead of what azenha has now

Daubers is the best server I've seen this year. He's scary deadly.

Yeah, if you see Daubers serve in person when he is on, it's ridiculous really. Not something I'd enjoy getting behind.
BTW, no more of this "oh he's the best server hands down in the world" unless you've seen every single good server. A nice "he's the best server I've ever seen" will do. Thank you.

I remember watching Barnett (the one who set at Pepp.) hammer against BYU in 2001. That thing was moving. He had 9 aces I believe. That was the hardest I have seen.

Rafael Paal had a really tough serve that he put a diagonal-sidespin on. It would drop very fast and if it was on would often drop right in front of the passer about 6 inches in front of where they thought it would be. He could also take everything off of it and drop it right over the tape inside the 3m line. Delano Thomas has a similar serve. Hawaii's celophane wearing MB last year had one of the most effective jump-floats I have ever seen. He would just give passers fits with it and Hawaii usually scored a few when he was serving.

Yuval Katz. No contest. Best jumpserver ever to play volleyball in the U.S. collegiate game. Didnt he get about 100 aces in 2 years without the "let rule"? |

Pacificgirl, Jr's favorite, hands down, is Nils Daubers.
