Sharks were struggling to field a full team with Paul and Jon both unavailable so Andy stepped in from the Vipers to coach and play for their match against Kings2.
The Sharks won the first 2 sets with relative ease once they got used to playing with a 2 setter system again. Strong serving kept Kings under pressure along with consistent hitting from Lars through the middle and Luis through the outside.
Tim varied his set well and managed to find the line with some reverse hitting to keep up the pressure early in the third set, but Kings rallied to take it to a fourth set. The Sharks dominated the set with good hitting from Eber and Jan. Kings did not help themselves by trying to dispute decisions with Emma who, as usual, was not taking any nonsense! Luis picked up MVP and the Sharks look forward to their next match where they will hopefully have less problems getting six players together, but I just hope they will be able to cope without the strong serving of their guest Viper ;-)
Sorry for forgetting to take team pictures, but probably best to wait until you have a full team anyway!
