I don't know if all of you know I played club volleyball in college. Led the team to back to back national tourney appearances my jr and sr year. This year in the latest polls St. John's is #24 in the country. Our conference rival, Fairfield, is #11 in the country. Pretty cool to see the team doing well and thought I'd share the rankings.

Interesting to see the #1 team. That college is only about 25 minutes away from my home. You ever play against Ohio Northern Dave?

Interested to see Ohio Northern there. They wanted me to play soccer for them. They are normally the best team in the OAC in soccer. School is kind of in the middle of nowhere though.

So our school would pay for our trip for the duration of the tournament in case we make it to the finals. If we don't we just hang out for a few days and co mingle with other schools girls teams. I'll have to post some pictures.

Yea I started the team at CBA. We played Bayonne a few times they actually had a decent team. CBA is one of the best teams in the state now and our program has only been around for about 6-7 years
