1st Round A10 Tourney
I’m thinking #5 SLU will knockoff #4 George Mason. I expect #3 LaSalle to beat #6 Duquesne in LASs first A10 Tournament Match ever.

SLU takes the first set over GM in extra points 26-24. Neither team looked great. Let me re-phrase that...neither team has a very fast offense. Both have a good OH that can score, but it’s off slow sets.

SLU up 2-0 winning night the second 25-23. These are very evenly matched teams. I watched SLU the first weekend of the season. Their great OH Maya Taylor was out injured, but they could do nothing in any aspect of the game. So to fight through those struggles and Ave to win the last two matches of the regular season just to ake the A10T. And to come in here with a shot at winning a match, and go to the second round, you have to be happy for these young women. They need to finish this match, but they have come a long, long way. We need a strong SLU program in the A10.

SLU sweep. SLU has only won 8 matches all year and 3 have been in the last 8 days. They are still alive and that is a huge accomplishment. Congrats.

SLU winning helps UDs rpi more than if GM had won because we played SLU twice and GM only once.

Duquesne wins the first set pretty easy 25-17. N a ne on LaSalle has any tournament experience. They will have to find another gear if they plan to advance.

Las up 17-16 in second. They are getting their block going. It’s the difference between the two sets.

Tied up 1-1. LaSalle couldn’t stop th3 Dukes in set 1. Their block helped in set 2.
Two nice teams in an entertaining match, but this is a UD and VCUs toutrnament to win. No one else is close unless we don’t show up ready to play.

Flyers have been watching the match since the first set. It looks like they are more entertained by the music being played than the volleyball. We did sweep both of these teams last weekend.
I’ll also add, I haven’t seen her play much this year (2 matches) by Katie Woods is not the best setter in the A10. LaSalle built their program around a good Libero and a good setter. The setter was LOY last year and Woods SOY this year. They both committed to LAS when LAS was nothing. So I’m happy for them both to get these awards. But Brooke is the best setter in the A10 even playing in a 6-2.

Great 4th set by both teams. LAS wins it 28-26 to have the honor of playing the Flyers tomorrow. 1st conference tourney win for LaSalle.
