Gysin was watching with her former Vison team mates. At the end of the match they (now playing in college) said hello to some of the Mitty girls who were team mates from last year.
BTW, Mitty beat Northgate (Walnut Creek, an East Bay HS) pretty handily: 25-19, 25-9, 25-13.

Wow. This is a shocker. Congratulations to Wash. St! This is a huge win for them. I still see USC as one of the teams who could win it all this year, though.

Actually, it's totally irrevelent. First, USC didn't have a boatload of fans on this board claiming that their team should have been #1 and taking offense when other posters expressed alternate opinions. "A boatload of fans claiming that their team should have been #1?" Give me a break. Are you talking about a mini canoe? Pretty angry, twisted view of reality you have there. Reality check: Most Hawaii posters stated any number of teams had a valid claim to the number one ranking but the AVCA coaches voted Hawaii #1 -- so what are you gonna do? P.S. The only offense taken was at the cheap shots taken at the Hawaii program. I, and many others, stated that they would not have voted Hawaii #1 so there is no problem with someone stating that they felt another team deserved it -- as long as that person doesn't always feel the need to belittle Hawaii in the process.

Since this has been brought up, I saw Campolindo (Moraga) beat St Francis (Sacramento) 25-23, 22-25, 25-23, 25-20. I understand something about St Francis not having their best player available tonight. I'm still trying to figure out exactly why I went all the way up to Sacramento for a HS match.

Did you also pay $8 to see that match? Santa Clara charges only $5 for general admission! The Los Gatos-Mitty match on Tuesday at Mitty (7 pm) should be the match to watch!

Perhaps it was due to IdahoBoy's presence on the Palouse?
Never would have guessed this upset this year! Not during turkey break.

Congratulations to Washington State, what an amazing way to finish of a chaotic season and be able to have a very optimistic feeling heading into their 2005 season.

Good Job to Washington State!!! That was some upset!!! You have to give some props to the underdogs, its a difficult task to knock off a top ten team. Sometimes losing to an underdog is a good wakeup call for USC, there is a bigger tournament coming up and it is a good time to get focused and let this loss go. I think USC is going to do very well this year and I predict them to be in the final four.
So good job to WSU!!!!!!

375 fans to be precise (most of them still home on Thanksgiving break I think). A disappointing number for the last game of the year, but I think the win makes up for that. I think WSU came from behind in every single win. I think the single most important factor was the Cougs reducing their hitting errors and USC having a ton (actually only a six error differential, but Coug confidence was up). Also, WSU spread the ball around. Jen Todd had 21 kills, Kelly Rosin had 18, Kristin Kelly had 17, Jen Barcus had 14. USC only had two players in double digits going into the fifth game (Burdine and Candelas). Intangible factor: Senior night for Alison Billingsley and Stacey Holbrook of WSU. Fans rushed the court after the win and joined in the celebration. Let me know if you have anymore questions! Go Cougs! Glad to hear from you WSUSuperfan. After all the turmoil of the previous year, what a way to end it. I wonder what Volleyball101 thinks of all of this......Better yet Cindy Fredrick! Congrats to you and all WSU backers. USC does not do well on back to back matches as has been posted on this board by others; it will be interesting.

CCS charges ony $6 for its sectional matches while NCS charges $8! Now, CIF charges $8 for Norcal, Socal and State. From what was told to me, the school doesn't get anything from ticket sales!!
