Gate City Volleyball

Battle has the experience necessary to do big things this year,with Woods and other returners they should be a dominant force. Talk is though that Glenvar is going to be the team to beat in Region C. They have two great middle hitters and a decent setter. I've been told though they aren't good in big games. Whoever makes it out of Region D will have a hard time. I read where Gate City brought down a big school last night.....I look forward to seeing how this season progresses for all three teams. Should be interesting.

Nice to know that you guys don't think Region D has a chance against you. Maybe our teams should just end our season now, or maybe just refuse to advance after the Region D Championship game.

Just stating facts, that's all.

Ok....facts....nope not facts
Opinions, maybe we need to post a link to an online dictionary or something

A fact is that the Pittsburg Steelers defeated the Miami Dolphins last night. An opinion would be that the Steelers were the better team.

You may be completely right, nobody in the Region may be able to compete with them. However, I think we have all seen the "not able to competes" win before.

Shew that is one of my biggest pet peeves. Too many people who think their crap doesn't stink and that because they think something its a fact.

Exactly Rock. Opinion was that no one could touch George Wythe in the state in the first season it was turned into a fall season. The fact was that RC defeated them for the championship.

I said whoever makes it out of Region D will have a tough time. This is true....why??? Because Glenvar and Battle are both great teams; it's proven! All I know is the game, when it comes, between C and D will be a interesting.

Any team that makes it that far should be a tough matchup.

Now sometimes a team from a particular region will be tougher, but when you get that far, even more than regular season, there is really no easy wins.

Battle may be the class of the field, or Glenvar for that matter. Heck, the class of the field may be someone nobody is considering yet. I dare say that a #6 seed Pittsburg was not considered the favorite to run the table, on the road, and win the Super Bowl. The moment you start thinking how nobody can beat you, is when you overlook someone you shouldn't. It doesn't take a team being better than you the entire year come playoff time, it just takes them being better that one day.

By all mean, say that you think Battle is the team to beat. They very well might be that. Just don't mistake opinions, informed or not, with fact.

As you say, when you get to that level, most all games are going to be tough.
RC was flat last night to say the least. I blame it more on tired legs than anything. Their third match in as many days, with a hard fought match the night before against Central. This is early season, and a lot can happen before it gets to the end. Heck, I may bring in an All State hitter from Germany (again!) before the season is through. I've been brousing their catalog, and there is a 6'4' beauty still available......[img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Is the Rye Cove team you are talking about going to be able to compete with Gate City???

Also, last year Grayson County was without one it's middle hitters...she was a starter....in the Region C semi's. They were expected to win the Region if she would have been healthy. So if she's playing this year, and Glenvar beat them...then obviously Glenvar has some talent. Anyone know about what Region D has please post.
