Record posts
This last post is a record for NCCS tournament blogs. 98 posts is a new record. It breaks the old mark of 97 posts set at the 2007 NCCS Soccer Championships in November. Mario breaks the record held by Mario. Mario started the first NCCS blog at the soccer championships in November. Mario likes to refer himself in the third person. I have just been told to eject. Late and thanks again...Good Night Everyone!!

We're back
To all volleyball enthusiasts...we are back. It is a beautiful 70 degrees in the convention center with wind coming from the north, south, east and west at 1 mph. There is not a cloud in the convention center (Note: blogger had flashback to soccer).
Final Blog for Thursday-Part II
Well one more note...this is my first time at volleyball nationals and I must say it is impressive to see 32 courts (with 4 more warm up courts) in one location. I have been hit with one volleyball today (at the tournament desk no less), I have seen impressive warm up shirts from different universities (use your imagination) and have the sound of fox 40 whistles ringing in my head...I say that as I go to bed. Late.
Final Blog for Thursday
As you can see by the time stamps, I should be getting to bed...we are hoping to kick the blog back live sometime tomorrow afternoon...if not we will see everyone on Friday night!! Out.

Delayed blogger
Hello everyone, I apologize for my delay in the blog but the NCCS blogger is back to "serve." I blame my delay on American Airlines...of course I drove to Dallas but everyone is blaming them so I will too. I also blame them for the Cowboys losing to the Giants, Texas losing to Texas A&M for two years and for the Dodgers not making the World Series...sorry wrong blog. On to volleyball!!
