i don't know how to feel....
It's finally over. Something I've devoted so much of my life to and waited so long to play and it's over. Part of me is relieved. This year was so unbelievably stressful for me because of volleyball. Some of it was my fault, some of it wasn't, but nonetheless, it was stress that I dealt with almost daily. On the other hand, volleyball has been the thing I've turned to when nothing else was right since I was like 10. Even though I never got as good as I thought I should be, and even though I sometimes acted like I hated being on the court, and even though I cursed the sport regularly, it was something that was a part of who I was. And now it's over. Granted, it's not like I'm never going to play volleyball ever again. I'll always have beach, and who knows, I may play in grad school, but it will never be like this. I'll never again play with such amazing guys who could be such retards off the court but as soon as we got onto that court and knew we had a job to do, we somehow almost always managed to get the job done. Some guys I've been with for three years, some two, and some one but all of which helped improve my game drastic levels over the last year, both mentally and physically....
If you would have asked me at the beginning of the semester if I was optimistic about the spring semester I would have laughed in your face. We had nearly the exact roster we had the fall semester and we took dead last at Michigan State out of 36 teams and finished pretty poorly in the other two tournaments, and somehow, even though I couldn't get guys to come to practice on time or daily, and even though I fought with Mark and Gordon constantly about everything, and even though I had a complex and thought all the guys thought I was a joke for a president, and even though off the court we were hardly a team, somehow, we kept on trucking and ended up ninth in the nation. Even more is that we finished in the same place that we finished two years ago when we arguably had 6 of the best 10 individual guys on one team in the nation. I couldn't be prouder of what we accomplished in Kansas City this year. Thanks for everything this year boys.
And a special congrats to the BSU women's club team for finishing in 5th place :)
