DELANO tigers 0
(25-15, 25-18, 25-18)

#3 AAA St. Michael-Albertville swept #6 AA Delano in a non conference match Monday night. This was the first loss on the year for the Tigers. This was also the first night back for Delano's Molly Kreklow who had been out with mono. Kreklow was used exclusively as a setter tonight to ease back in the routine of games. She will be hitting when she is back to full speed. STMA had stronger ball control today than when I first saw them vs Andover. Every week a different position dominates the action. The right side for both teams filled that roll tonight. The Katherine/Catherine Connection is a D1 combo for STMA. The Koenecke/Kreklow Connection is another strong combo, but the 2009s were in control tonight. Katherine Harms had 17 points on the night for the Knights.

Delano missed their first three serves to start the contest helping STMA to get a 5-2 lead. STMA used a solid first ball side out game with 11/13 FBSO in set one (.846). Four of those FBSO were gift wrapped on missed serves. Both teams settled down and traded 8 straight side outs. Delano closed to 15-11. STMA scored six straight, five on Brittani Wiese's serve. Wiese had two aces in the burst and STMA had a 21-11 lead. Delano took their only time out at 18-11, but the Knights added three more points to their totals after the break.

Delano had a slight advantage early in set two. The Tigers had three runs of three to push out to a 10-8 lead. Kayla Koenecke had three straight kills to reach get that lead. STMA took the lead for good at 17-15. The Knights finished with a 15-5 run. The Knights had six straight FBSO to close set two. Delano closed to 20-18 when a missed serve gave the ball back to the home team. They never gave it back. Delano took a time out, but Catherine Yager had two straight kills forcing another Tiger time out. STMA added two more points after that for their second set victory.

In a repeat of the second set Delano again grabbed the early lead. Their biggest lead of the night came at 7-3. STMA contributed to that margin with two missed serves. The last Tiger lead came at 11-8 when the Knights tore off a 12-2 run. Lindsay Berning had three straight aces to put the Knights in the lead for good. Delano took their first time out at 17-13, but the Tigers never stopped the Knights after the breaks. Delano did have one more push to close to 21-17. Maria Berning had two straight kills for the beginning of the end of the night. The night ended with Harms' 15th kill of the match.

Weekly Review #5: Blocked

Weekly Review #5: BLOCKED
The week ended with Shakopee knocking off #1 Chaska in the Apple Valley tournament. Unfortunately I wasn't able to be there due to obligations with my squad at the SPA tournament. The awards/honors listed below are based on what I saw over the week. I was able to get out Monday, Tuesday and Friday for action. All the contests, but one were over and out in sweeps. I also was able to see the last three teams that are listed in the top 10 in AAA. (for those keeping track I am now just missing one team overall in AAA poll/receiving votes category---Blaine).

The big impact this week was found at the net. Woodbury and Owatonna both had walls with 9 and 8 total blocks. Both teams have nice length across the front line. It makes life difficult with those extra few inches across the board making teams adjust to a different reality. The rest of the six teams combined had 10 blocks for points.

To be eligible for these awards I had to see the team in action the past seven days.

TEAM OF THE WEEK
Woodbury was big at the net and they don't make many mistakes. The Royals gave up on average 6 points per game, the lowest of all the teams seen this week. They also earned more of their points than any team with 17.3. On top of that they were second in FBSO in the week with a .548 %. The Royals use balance and defense to their advantage.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Even though her team lost when I watched the honor goes to Amy Braun of Lakeville North. She provided over half of LN's earned points in the three set loss to #1 Chaska in the Apple Valley tournament. Braun had 16.5 points, 15 on kills. She is a 5-10 outside hitter that provided big shots when LN needed them in the front or back row.

each week has a theme and this week the theme was outside hitters. The OHs provided much of the points the past seven days.
