District Final - Waverly vs Athens

[toast]

This Saturday at Southeastern.

Both won hard fought five game victories to get here. Athens over Westfall and Waverly topped Court House.

Should be an interesting match-up.

We faced both squads and it should be a great match. I'll say Athens in 4....but Waverly winning would not be a surprise.

[Coach Skinner]

Go Bulldogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm giving this match to the Bulldogs.

Athens beat Waverly in the preseason but we all know both teams have improved all season. Good Luck to both teams but I'm cheering for the Bulldogs!!!!!

Go Dawgs!!!!!!!

You'll only read this on the volleyball thread from an NY fan, but GOOD LUCK BULLDOGS!!!!

Not open to debate: Athens has a height advantage.

Looks like Waverly is the decided underdog going in to this one. Relish the role Tigers!

[Black Panther]

Waverly is more athletic than most think.And they have nice height and quickness too..Should be a good match.I'd say Waverly wins in 5.

[socvwatcher#1]

Both teams are good or they would not have made it this far. Distribution and good mechanics is key for a Waverly win. Good luck for both teams, but I am pulling for Waverly in 5.

If I were a betting person I'd place the following bets.

1. Athens will arrive on time.

2. Waverly will have the bigger crowd.

3. Athens players will be more "vocal".

4. Waverly players will not be intimidated.

Go Tigers!!

Great comeback by Waverly after dropping the first two sets. Waverly lead the entire first set only to lose at the end. Can't wait for next season!

Great fan support for the Tigers

Good Luck to Athens in the Regionals! That's a mighty fine team

[AxGrinder]

Congratulations to the Bulldogs from Athens!!!! Good Luck in the Regional tournament. Too bad you have to go all the way over to Wilmington. The other district winner Fairfield Union get to go to Zanesville.
