Over this past weekend they competed in the AAU National Volleyball Tournament in Orlando, Florida. They competed in the Club division which had 146 teams this year. This is the largest volleyball tournament in the United States.
Her team was undefeated through the first 3 days of pool play and won their cross-over match to start out 10-0. This put them in the gold bracket.
In bracket play they won their first game against a good undefeated team called the Lions and moved on to the quarter-finals. In the quarter-finals they played a tough team called Club 1. They lost their first set but came back and won the next two in an exciting game. They were now in the final 4 teams. Their next game was against a team called Kokoro Volleyball. They lost in two sets. Kokoro just had too many hitters.
So, they tied for 3rd. 12 and 1 for the week. A terrific result and nice end to the year for Power.
Below are the results from the tournament.
Noelle had a great time and just missed getting elected to the AAU Nationals All Star team. In fact, had her team won that last match, she would have made it because they take 3 players from each of the final 2 teams. Noelle was number three on the list.
Below is a picture of their third place metals.
