ASC Predictions

I was wondering what the conferences were going to do about their preseason predictions and stuff. Well, it looks like the ASC is business as usual as they announced theirs on Tuesday. I waited a day so as not to upstage their first match of the year. No big surprises as UT-Dallas was the unanimous……

Tuesday, Jan. 19 Match Day!

Updates: Caught the end of the first set and spent a few minutes trying to figure out why the sound wasn’t working on my computer. Figured it was the feed when the set was over and the commercial had sound. Hate it when I can’t hear the sport being played. Weird seeing the masks on……

Monday Musings

Just a quick musings to remind everyone that we have a West Region match tomorrow!?! LeTourneau is getting things started quickly with a non-conference double-header against Jarvis Christian. My “Match Day!” post will drop at 2 a.m. tomorrow morning and after a year I had to go remind myself what I included in those posts.……

Jan Gentry Musing

I was surprised to search my site and find that I mentioned Jan Gentry (NCAA Associate Directory of Championships and Alliances) in only 6 articles. I also don’t believe I was being negative in any of them. But, when it comes to Ms. Gentry, I do have a negative opinion of her. I mention all……

Volleyball!?!

Although the spring semester hasn’t started and schools are not back in session, we do have volleyball on the horizon. Kind of ironic as the Covid numbers are the worst they have been since the pandemic has started, but we do have three of the four West Region conferences moving forward with their volleyball plans.……

2021 Recruits Page is Up

Left side menu (computer) or pull down (most anything else) now has the 2021 Recruits Page. Not many players listed, so far. This becomes the most popular page each year and I’ll be updating it all the way through August. 2021 will make this interesting because the NCAA has frozen DI recruiting until April 15th……

Happy Holidays (or Stick It 2020)

My wife is currently cleaning the house so I needed an excuse to remove myself from her sight line. Don’t get me wrong, I just made cookies and did the dishes and I’m currently doing the laundry. She, however, is cleaning and there is never an end to that. Like most, the cleaning will not……

Greatest Championship Ever?

I saw something on Twitter (@D3Playbook) asking what was the greatest DIII volleyball championship match and thought it deserved some research. For the past couple of years, I’ve been recreating the NCAA Brackets for all of the NCAA Tournaments since 1981 since they seem to be lost in a graphical format. As I’m going through……

SCIAC Calls it Quits for 2020 Volleyball

Leave it to the SCIAC to drop news on the day I’ve already written an article. So, nothing for over a month and now two, count them 2, articles on the same day. Unfortunately, this isn’t a good one as the SCIAC Presidents have unanimously agreed to cancel all conference competitions for the fall and……

November Musings

No posts for the ENTIRE month of November! Believe me, I didn’t plan it that way and I’m not 100% sure why it happened. I’m in the middle of my Championship series, which I have worked on a little bit. For the most part, I’ve been uninterested, which is sad to admit. Certainly not depressed.……
