Phil and Nick better hang on to this lead. No lead is safe when you need to take the second set to push to a third.

T2 now down 19-20 against Cribb. They held onto a two points lead for most of Set 2. Now gone. I thought they’ll be at least able to push it to three sets.

Brunner/Patterson scores a real point on match freeze. 12-14 for them now.
Dalcena better close this out quick. Aka now!!!

Casey serves an ace right in the middle. It’s now 13-14 and Dalcena calls their last timeout.
One thing at a time. One sideout at a time!

Phil dominating this first set. Nick's playing good too, but feels like Phil could carry any defender in the qualifier to a win right now

This Phil is still the best player in the world.

What was Phil doing at the end of the first set lol
That first set was probably the worst Cribb has done against Dalcena. I’m surprised Cribb didn’t take a timeout at all.
Dalcena has lost sets similar in score though to Cribb in the past.

Phil dominating this first set. Nick's playing good too, but feels like Phil could carry any defender in the qualifier to a win right now Nick was able to side out for most of the final today. Usually Taylor is digging everything that Nick sends over to their side of the net.

Nick played the best ball I've ever seen him play . . . If the Olympics were to take place today....Phil and Nick might give the Norwegians and Russians a run for their money.

Wow. Dalcena played some next level beach volleyball in the finals today. Never seen them play this well. Everything was working for them. Phil blocking. Phil serving. Nick digging balls and siding out at a high rate. Anyways, this is PHIL’S 100TH TOURNAMENT WIN. 5th man to hit triple digits. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 http://instagram.com/p/CDHxzV5FVHK

Back when we were younger, Phil had just started to play with Nick who was at FSU and Phil was at UCF.
I tried to talk Phil into playing with in the World University games, his response was so Phil.
"I don't know Jim, I'm not sure we are good enough for that".
And here we are.... Congrats Phil, what a journey.

Phil flattering Nick in the post finals interview. Spilling all the details about the call in 2015 that revived the partnership.
