Purple is right, what a great tournament....6 teams (Cal Jrs, Central Cal, Club Cinci, Laguna, Sunshine and Wave) came into the tourny with Open bids, deepest of any Qualifier or JDVA event in the country....three others, as Purple mentioned, picked up bids in hard fought matches through out a grueling 3 days.

Wave with outstanding team ball control and hard finishers (from every hitting position) was the strongest team...., They have won 2 qualifiers (Spokane and here) making a strong claim for a very high seed a JO's...Central Cal with excellent team work and strong digging and Cal Jrs with flying outsides and smart libero, also would have recieved bids at 2 qualifiers they entered. (CC here and Denver, Cal Jr's here and Spokane)...Sunshine also would be in that category (Indy and Spokane)

951 fought hard for their bid and the very deep, talented, LB Mizuno team did the same....they provided great action and skill......Vision played hard all tourny long...these 3 teams all deserve congratulations and will be stong competitors at the JO's!! Getting a JO's OPEN bid is no easy task and was the goal here.

Club Cincinnati played well all weekend.....they are a very talented athletic team with a high spirit and a fun bunch of parents..it was good to have you in Southern Cal and we look forward to seeing you in Dallas...best of luck the rest of your season.

There are some teams still fighting for a bid and with Reno on the horizon, there is more oppurtunity...keep working!

There is no break for the So Cal teams as this coming weekend they have a mandatory......get some rest teams....thanks again for a great showcase of talent this weekend.
