Minneapolis - - With nothing to lose and everything to prove, the Setter's Camp Dropouts posted a 2*-1 match win over All Over (who were all over everything but going to the correct gym). The win gives the Dropouts a 9-3 record at the halfway point of the season.
This was the first game without superstar Megan Bergseth who is out with a bum knee after a collision with a car. I caught up with Mitch before the game who added, "It has been tough to watch a great player go down on my favorite football team (Patriots) and now my favorite volleyball team, we'll be alright though. Lot of pride on this team."
The game got started about a half hour late due to All Over going to the wrong gym. The first game was awarded to the dropouts via forfeit. Game 2 was a classic barn burner that the Dropouts came up on the short end 27-26. After falling behind early in game 3 the Dropouts found their stride and blew the game wide open and won going away. Even though for the second time in 4 weeks the game was stopped for a warning by the ref (mostly the other team).
After the game, Josh said, "It was a big win and a big step in piecing this team back together and getting ready for a playoff push." The subs were great, the hustle was there and the Dropouts did what they do best - Battle.
