Lady "Yotes fall to UC San Diego

Hey kids,

The Turzman here with an update on Coyote Volleyball.
Last night in a game that should've been broadcast over Coyote Radio but wasn't (see yesterday's post--rant section), the ladies dropped a heartbreaker to the UC San Diego Tritons (ranked #2 in the nation), 3-1.
It seemed the 'yotes were flat, Jessica Nelthorpe had nothing (turns out she was playing on a bum leg), Amy Long was hitting the ball all over the arena except in-bounds, and the defense is still a little shakey.
Brie Harris, the 'yote's big gun was held at bay. Her kill attempts were up there, but her percentage was low, the Tritons did their homework and were ready for her.
Kathleen Price (who goes by "Kat" now, for whatever reason) was the only consistent factor for the yotes in the middle, being the most efficient attacker with a .515 kill percentage. But with only 19 kills over the four games, just wasn't enough.

On a personal note, I fell in love with Triton MB Kendra Canape (#10) over the course of the evening. She's beautiful and a firecracker on the court. What I wouldn't give to take her to dinner, dancing and a movie.
Oh well, I'll get over it. I always do.

Check this site before this weekend to catch my picks for NFL week 2. Week 1 I was 9-7 straight up but only 8-8 against the spread. Nobody does good week 1 though, 8 wins would have earned 2nd or 3rd place in your basic office pool. I predict at least 10 wins this weekend.

Send me your picks and we can gamble (just keep it hush-hush).

or call me at 909-881-3654.

If there's anybody reading this that knows UC San Diego Triton MB Kendra Canape, tell her she's got a fan in The Turzman.

That's all for now, I'm gonna go find a nice quiet corner and cry for a while.
