Rachel had her spring tournament today at UVU. We enjoyed watching her play a new position. lebro and defensive specialist. Her team struggled a little but one many games. They beat the University of Utah and other good teams.
Before serving, Rachel has a tradition of bouncing the ball as quickly and as low to the ground as she can.
She did amazing on her serve. I think she was the only one on her team who did not miss a serve. Good job Rachel!!
I am still getting used to seeing her pass the ball instead of setting the ball, but she is learning her new position well.
She is still her scrappy, aggressive self on the court.
and her bubbly, positive attitude is so contagious for all around her.
Rachel's team seem to really like playing together. I think they are also happy to get through the semester and pack up for New Zealand and Samoa.
Yes you heard me right, her team is going over seas to play volleyball and do some service projects-- Have fun girls.
This tournament was good for all the girls to get some time on the court and work on their skills.
Nice platform Rachel
You can see the concentration! Good pass Rachel.
UVU ended up in third position in this tournament, beating Utah, UNLV, Splitting with Utah State and finally losing to Southern Utah.
Congratulations and have a fun trip girls!
Good job Rachel! You are an extremely dedicated athlete!
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you!! Like Jess said you are such an amazing and dedicated athlete and the thing that I've always liked best about playing with you and watching you play is the passion that you have for the game. You are always so excited to be playing and it's always evident by the way that you practice and play... you just make it fun- always competative- but still fun ;)
