Zero Gravity 14's Upset #1 Seed Southwest in Gold Regional Championship Play-offs, Finish Third in Gold

Our 14s had a great day in Columbus, finishing 3rd in the Gold after a heart breaking loss by 2 points in the third game against Renaissance Pittsburgh 14-1.  Congratulations on a fine finish in the OVR's inaugural 14 American Division.  You should all be very proud of yourselves.

16's Knock Off #1 Southwest at Regional Championships but fall to 3rd in Three Way Tie for First

I seem to remember this...Baltimore...Three way tie for first...Kids playing their heart out and falling to third on a tie breaker.  But once again our young ladies pulled it together and finished the tournament strong with a 5-1 match record and a Bronze Championship.  Our pool proved to be very tough as Southwest won the Gold Championship, Mintonette was in the Silver finals, and ZG won the Bronze.  Needless to say our 16's had their best match of the year with a win over Southwest 16-1 in their first match of the day and they can be proud that it was the only blemish on their otherwise undefeated run to the OVR Title.  Congratulations Ladies on a great end to a great season!!

Best 49th Place One Loss Team...Ever!!

Our young ladies traveled to the NorthEast Qualifier in Baltimore this weekend and did an excellent job.  Overall our ladies finished with an 8-1 match record (including a bye in the play-offs), but that one loss was an untimely one.  With wins in their first 2 matches on Friday our ladies dropped their last match against the top seed on their net 24-26, 26-24, 13-15 to fall from first to third on their net by 1 point.  After that heart breaking loss, the best our ladies could finish was 49th.  Never quiting after the news, our ladies went undefeated on Saturday and Sunday.  Only 4 teams in the entire 96 team field finished with a better match record than our ladies and I was very proud of all of them!  Team members included Shannon Robson, Callie Lance, Carly Fazio, Brooke Smith, Hillary Plybon, Laura Wheeler, Meg Sullivan, Jenna Samsa, Alex Leister, and Kati Schneider.  Congratulations ladies!!

Zero Gravity "15s" Have a Good Day In Columbus

On Saturday we took the four 14s and two 9th graders that could play and created a 15R team to play at the Batters Box in Columbus.  In their pool our ladies had easy wins over Columbus United 15-2 (25-23, 25-16) and Kaepa Miami Valley Jrs Academy 15-2 (25-15, 25-18), but dropped their match with #2 seed and eventual Gold Champion Northshore Bollenbacher (15-25, 25-11, 13-15) to finish second on their net.  In the Gold Quarter-finals Zero Gravity took down Matchpoint 15-1 (25-17, 19-25, 15-11) before running out of gas against #1 seed Lithopolis Jr Netters 15-1 (26-24, 23-25, 7-15) in the Gold Semi-finals to finish third.  Team members included Kacie Moore, Laura Kelly, Nikolette Scruggs, Kristin Cardwell, Madi Smith, and Pixie Veneziano.  Congratulations Ladies, great job!
