Tuesday Home Match with Tahoma

Come out and cheer the Falcons to victory over Tahoma on Tuesday. The JV and Freshman contests are at 6pm followed by the Varsity at 7:15pm. Tahoma is a deceptive 1-4 on the season with losses to SPSL South powers Rogers and Curtis and to Kentwood. It should be a good match.

We need people to help with concessions for JV/Freshman (a JV parent could still watch the game while doing concessions) and scorebook for the Freshman game.

We also need lines for JV and Varsity.

Reminder: There is a home match against Auburn on Thursday.

Whitworth Volleyball Match Video

All home matches for Whitworth University (and former Kentlake player Kathy Taylor) will be streamed free over the internet. Whitworth plays Linfield and Willamette this weekend. A link to the video is available at http://www.whitworth.edu/Athletics/Teams/Volleyball/Releases/2009/Sept16.htm. This is the opening of NW Conference play for the Pirates. They went 1-3 last weekend but played a very tough schedule at the Cal-Lu-Fornia Tournament at Cal Lutheran, sweeping #6 :a Verne but losing to #7 Trinity and #23 Cal Lutheran in five games.

Don't forget that tomorrow is International Talk Like a Pirate Day!

KW loses to KR

Kentwood lost to Kentridge, 3-2, tonight. Could be a very interesting year in Kent volleyball.
