Shocks @ Drake (Friday) and @UNI (Saturday)

[flyingMoose]

10-14 becomes 15-15 and eventually 18-17 and the Panthers take a TO.

[flyingMoose]

An attack error and block error makes it 20-17 and UNI takes its second TO.

With the loss of Giorgia for the season, Mike notes that Kara Bown makes her season debut as a DS.

Shocks fell behind 0-3 worked the score even at 7-7. A 7-3 run by UNI made it 10-14. Shocks got it back to even at 15-15.

Shocks take their first lead at 18-17 with UNI taking a timeout at that point.

Shocks picked up 2 points out of the time out to go up 20-17 as UNI used their 2nd time out of the set.

UNI the ran off 3 straight points to tie the score at 20-20 after the time out.

Shocks then closed the set with a 5 point run to win it 25-20.

Quite a back and forth affair but nice job by the Lady Shocks to hang in through the first half of the set.

[flyingMoose]

After the TO, the set is tied at 20 before the Shockers finish off the first set at 25-20 with two kills, a block, an attack error and another kill.

Hitting was .333 v .182, and blocks were 2 v 0.

With the loss of Giorgia for the season, Mike notes that Kara Bown makes her season debut as a DS.

Not only her season debut but her Shocker debut.

[flyingMoose]

Not only her season debut but her Shocker debut.

Yes!

[1972Shocker]

Shocks fall behind early again again in Set 2 this time by 4 points at 1-5. Probably something they might not want to make a habit of doing. Especially against quality opponents.

At least if you fall behind early you do have time to recover.

[1972Shocker]

Shocks call a time out trailing 4-9.

[1972Shocker]

Now Shocks trailing 4-12 and Lambo burns his final time out early.

[flyingMoose]

Now 4-12 and the Shocks use their second TO.

[1972Shocker]

Going to be very difficult digging out of this hole, but perhaps more importantly Shocks seem to be struggling at this point. They at least need to regain a better feel and flow during the remainder of this set.

[1972Shocker]

Shocks cut the 8 point lead in half at 11-15 and UNI uses their 1st TO.

[flyingMoose]

Shockers creep back to 11-15 and UNI takes their first TO.

[1972Shocker]

UNI scores 3 in a row coming out of the timeout to go back up 7 at 11-18. Down 7 with UNI only needing 7 will be very, very difficult to overcome.

[flyingMoose]

15-23 moves to 18-23 and the Panthers take their last TO. You can't take them with you.
