A spirited crowd of around 500-600 was on hand to cheer the Gaels volleyballers past Miami tonight, and was rewarded with a 3-0 sweep that was never in doubt. The entire men's and women's basketball team was on hand to lend support, led by chief mischief-maker James Walker.
The Gael heavy hitters -- Jordan Shaw, Kristina Graven and Danica Mendivil -- are a fearsome threesome, and they are abetted by Madelyn Hutson, the 6-5 transfer from the University of Texas, and Natalie Loos, who was out all last year with an injury. A measure of how deep this team is was the sight of Samantha Tinsley and Rachel Gillcrist, two major contributors last year, standing on the sideline for most of the action.
There was even a celebrity drop-in -- Delly was in the house. He is evidently training in Moraga in advance of the opening of the Caviliers camp.
