From the beginning to the end, this season has been all over the board with the exception of NDA!! I think that based off this season, no one can label a game as an "upset" unless someone knocks NDA out before state, especially 9th region!! Teams have proven that anyone can be beaten on any given night & by a lower ranked team. There may be surprises & even flukes, but no true upsets. The 33rd District seems to be a good one to watch. Cooper & Ryle are clearly the favorites to come out of the 33rd, but they shouldn't look past Boone & Conner, especially Boone. Boone has proven they can play with & beat the big dogs. If Boone comes out strong, Cooper isn't gonna have an easy path to Regions. Conner also can't be overlooked but it all depends on which Conner team takes the court. I've seen Conner battle strong against Ryle & then I've seen the Conner that gets pummeled by Beechwood. Conner's libero is very good at being in the right place at the right time. She is very quick, an excellent passer & has a strong serve. Conner's setter is also very good & also a strong serve.Conner's problem is lack of strong hitting. It doesn't matter how good the libero, DS or setter is when the ending isn't a kill. No matter what your record says & what school you play for, no team is automatic pick to move forward therefore should play every game as though it was your last!!!

Congrats to Ncc on a great win. Good luck to both teams the rest of the year
