I just saw that Hyden/Doherty won decisively against Pedro/Vitor. 21-11, 21-19. Wow.
Am I being too wishful that they can take down Mol/Sorum??

Of course that was a couple years ago. Does anyone know Doherty's work ethic? Maybe because he's tall and I feel he should be getting better results, but it just seems he plateaued.

Ryan and John showing absolutely no motivation, it's like they came to play and lose... Come on now.

4-9 to make it 7-10 is a good start for Hyden and Doherty in Set 2!

Sams with a couple blocks and digs to go from 10-11 to 14-12 in Set 2. Phil immediately calls a timeout.
Update: they come back and Phil gets 2 blocks. Now it’s 15-14.

Nick seems fired up!! “Great set!” he yells. Then he goes back to serve and Phil gets a block.
Canada calls a timeout. USA up 20-18.

Phil comes back. Phil gets another block. The boys are into the quarterfinals. They’ll have Mol/Sorum.
Meanwhile in the other Round of 16, T2 are up 18-16. At tech timeout, they were up 11-10. Tri went on a serving run that included 2 aces to go 14-10.

T2 unable to close the second set. Trevor or Tri hit the match ball out. Now it’s tied 22-22. I was watching that. T2 were up 2 service breaks, I think it was 19-17 with Alison serving, and lose the first on a Trevor shank of an Alison float serve. Then at 20-19, after a couple of back and forths, Trevor goes high line, out. That tied it up. Then I lost my livestream so I don't know how it all ended. Somebody said on a thread last March that Trevor gets tight when the match is on the line. It kind of looked like that. That is not a trait shared by his brother, that is for sure.

So far all matches have been sweeps, even if they went overtime.
The other two quarterfinals are set. They’ll be: Herrara/Gavira vs Andre/George Krasilnikov/Stoyanovskiy vs Evandro/Bruno

Adrian and Enrico's fast offense was surprisingly effective against Oleg and Krasilnikov, but the problem is that Italy has no way to score points against an elite team. The Russians basically outlasted them by siding out, 21-19, 30-28. Still, it was entertaining to see a top 5 team fooled by Adrian's trickery.
