April was a digging dynamo early on as Spike raced out to steal set one. But the Kiss players were last season's champs for a reason. Gritty, resilient team play turned the tide for Kiss and the champs edged Spike to take two of three.

Owen, Collin, Liz, Jim, Sarah and Tom starred for the winners, while Joe was a beast at the net for Kiss. Sam is also an extremely talented setter for Kiss!

I made the comment that Kiss had started session two somewhat slowly, but things look to be turning around because the champs showed up huge tonight in grabbing all three sets against a very good Serves squad. These sets were close, so both teams had elevated energy.

I always love running into Big Dig and Chew, be it here or at Pinz. These are two fun, energetic teams with great people. Tonight, the three Big Dig females of Jess, Rachel and Sneaky Alyssa did enough to snatch two of three against Chew. I'm not sure there's a gym in Kendall County that can contain Cody's leaping ability! Kiera and Skylr were solid as well!
