It was my first time attending the WIAA state volleyball tournament, and while it was unfortunate to see our two area teams bounced in the semifinals, it was a pretty exciting day.
But before I get too involved with this weekend's state football quarterfinal playoff action, here are a few thoughts I had from the state volleyball tournament.
***When played well, volleyball is quite the sport to watch live and up close. I'm amazed at some of the hops that the girls for Waupun have, in particular, freshman Brandi Dolgner. They can get up.
***At first, I questioned the fact that the WIAA has two games going at the same time for the rounds before the state final. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but the cool thing about it was there was a lot of noise in the Resch Center and I think the girls really fed off that, even if the cheers weren't for them.
***Waupun will be back. The team starts two sophomores and two freshman and only graduates two seniors. One of the freshman, Bridget Nickel, was so excited after every point that she would jump up and down. Of course, when she jumps up and down, it's a good three feet into the air, so it's a bit more noticeable.
***To the Waupun student section: Very fine roller coaster.
