Congratulations to Kristina Keltner and Go Army!

Congratulations to former HCS player Kristina Keltner and Army for making the first round of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament

This is the first time the Black Knights of West Point have received a bid into the tournament.

Congratulations Kristina! We are proud of you!

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - After capturing the 2009 Patriot League title, the Army volleyball team had to wait a week to learn of its NCAA Tournament fate. The wait was well worth it, as the Black Knights drew the University of Pennsylvania, 2009 champions of the Ivy League, in the opening round. No. 1 overall seed Penn State, which will host the first and second rounds in University Park, Pa., and America East champion Binghamton join Army and Penn in what was the first bracket revealed during Sunday's Selection Show on ESPNews.
"The team couldn't be more thrilled about drawing Penn in the first round," said 2009 Patriot League Coach of the Year Alma Kovaci. "I kept saying that I wanted to avoid playing Penn State right off the bat because I want the team to have an unbelievable experience. Penn is a team that we are familiar with and they play a very similar style to ours. I am grateful to the selection committee for showing Army the respect that we have earned with some quality wins this season."
Army and Penn will square-off in Friday's first match beginning at 5 p.m. Penn State and Binghamton will follow at 7:30 p.m. The winners of both matches will clash on Saturday, Dec. 5, at 7:30 p.m. All matches will be played at Penn State's Rec Hall.
"With such a rich and storied tradition and one of the strongest fan bases in the country, we are very excited to play at Penn State," Kovaci said. "It will undoubtedly be a great atmosphere to play in and it's not too far from West Point. Hopefully that means that we will get a lot of support from our fans and the West Point community. We are just thrilled to be a part of this tournament."
Army (26-5) won the Patriot League's automatic bid when the Black Knights dethroned eight-time Patriot League champion American in a stunning sweep in last Sunday's title match. Army will be making its first appearance in the NCAA Division I Tournament on Friday.
Penn (22-5) will be making its first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2003 after defeating Princeton, 3-1, in the Ivy League Championship match on Wednesday night in Philadelphia. Army swept Princeton at the Delaware Invitational earlier this year, while the Black Knights also collected a victory over Penn during spring tournament play. Army and Penn met during the regular season in 2007 when the Quakers swept the Black Knights in the second match of the American Volleyball Tournament in Washington, D.C.
Army and Penn have met six times in program history. The Quakers own a 5-1 advantage in the all-time series, which dates back to 1982. The Black Knights won the initial meeting, 2-0, at the Princeton Invitational and have lost five-straight matches in the series since.
The likely second-round opponent for either Army or Penn will be the likes of Penn State (32-0), which enters the tournament riding an incredible 96-match win streak. The two-time defending national champions have not lost a single match since Sept. 15, 2007, when Stanford beat the Nittany Lions (3-2). Penn State comes into the tournament as the overall No. 1 seed and is joined by No. 2 Texas, No. 3 Florida State and No. 4 Stanford among the elite teams in the bracket.
Should Binghamton (15-15) pull off the most unlikely of upsets, Army defeated the Bearcats by a 3-2 score in the final match of the 2009 West Point Challenge on Sept. 20.

Culp honored as OVC Setter of the Week
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - Junior setter Melanie Culp has shown improvements from week-to-week thus far in the 2009 volleyball season and was rewarded on Monday by being named the OVC Setter of the Week. This is the first time she has earned the distinction in her career.
Culp, an Indianapolis, Ind., native, dished out 124 total assists in three matches this past weekend at the Cardinal Classic in Louisville, Ky. She recorded a career-high 59 assists in the Golden Eagles' five-set match against Liberty and also registered 37 assists against Louisville and 28 against Toledo. Culp also chipped in with 13 digs and a pair of blocks.
"She put great numbers this weekend, especially in the match against Liberty," said head coach John Blair.
A converted defensive specialist, Culp is visibly becoming more comfortable at the setter position. After tallying 99 total assists during her sophomore campaign, Culp has already amassed 336 assists this season.
"This is evidence of the progression of both her and the team," Blair said. "She is well aware that there is still some work to do, but this is a step in the right direction for her."
Culp, who currently ranks third in the conference with 9.33 assists/set, is a major reason why the Golden Eagles currently rank fourth in the OVC in team hitting percentage (.182).
Culp will lead Tech into conference play this weekend as the team takes on Southeast Missouri State on Friday at 7 p.m. and Eastern Illinois on Saturday at 2 p.m. Both home matches will be played at the Eblen Center.

Life doesn't require that we be the best, only that we try our best. Strive for excellence, not perfection.

-- H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Too often we convey to those we teach or coach that we are looking for perfection~
When we should be...
Teaching excellence- modeling excellence-

striving for excellence- expecting excellence

Remember: in striving for excellence you are giving permission to fail, to learn from that failure and strive to be better because of that failure.

In perfection there is no room for failure- the only thing we learn is that we didn't measure up, that we are no good or that we are a failure ourselves.

Strive for excellence today and be the blessing God made you to be~

There are people walking around today feeling defeated, feeling unloved, feeling like they don’t measure up, feeling that they don’t fit in…

Take the time to speak words that let them know they can do anything they set their minds to, they are loved, that they just need to be who God created them to be- nothing more and nothing less and that they always have a place in Christ.

Remind them:
They are special,

“It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood,
who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again;
because there is not effort without error and shortcomings;
but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm,
the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause,
who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who
at worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly.
So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
who know neither victory nor defeat.”

Today~ Dare to be great at what you do, take the chance , get in the arena, spend yourself today on the purposes God made you for...
