Eater family, friends and fans,
The boys took on UCSD on Monday night and surprisingly took the Tritons in 3 sets. Why am I surprised? Because this was the same team that took the Anteaters to 5 sets last year and beat us twice. I thought there would be a little more fight in the Tritons, but hey, it made for an early night home.
Key combos were the Bryan (AKA, Gene or Richard) Simmons and Ryan Ammerman block at the right pin. You've got a 6'7" & 6'8" combo patrolling the net out there making it difficult to get a ball by the block. There were quite a few double stuffs at the outside because of this tandem. Stepping up their play this season is OH Jordan Dufault, (AKA, JD). He has really a consistent offensive performer and puts up a formidable block.
Tonight will be at the 'Mid @ Long Beach St. The 49ers boast a pretty talented team, add on former Eater assistant coach, John Hawks, and you know it's going to be a highly competive matchup. The 49ers come out with Klipsch, Bittner, Pestolesi, Watten, Baughman and Alexander. The Niners pack some heat, but the Eater block is big. Listen in tonight at http://ucirvinesports.cstv.com/multimedia/on-air.html.
Checkin' out,
Rob
