Volleyball in the Lower Hudson Valley

What a weekend

November
17

I still can’t get over the final yesterday between Hen Hud and Section 6’s Eden. It’s one thing to see two evenly-matched teams square off, but when they are the two best teams in the state, it takes things to another level.

Thanks to Casey for doing such a great job updating the blog as I watched this epic match unfold, while trying to keep my jaw from hitting the floor. I’ve been prone to exaggerate in the past, but I really think this was the best and most thrilling high school event (that’s all sports) I’ve seen in my four years working at The Journal News.

The great atmosphere, including a tremendous Hen Hud crowd, only added to the overall experience. It’s clear by the reactions from the players and coaches, as well as those in the stands, that this is a day that will probably never be forgotten by those in attendance.

Congratulations to Hen Hud, as well as to Westlake and Haldane for making it back to the state final four. Back with more later.

    Alex Myers, you said you’d be “back with more later,”
    and some of us are on the edge of our seats anticipating your next words of luminosity.
    Please speak, Alex Myers, the wait has become unbearable.

    When Alex Myers was a baby, he didn’t suck his mother’s breast. His mother served him whiskey, straight out of the bottle.

  31. Dino

    Given Alex’s prone to exaggeration, all of these crazy comments are appropriate responses :) .

  32. choo choo

    the one thing that can stop the K-TRAINNN, is Alex Myers

  33. Alex Myers

    Hey everyone,

    I’m blown away by the amount of comments and by how clever some of them are. I also didn’t know I had so much in common with Chuck Norris…

    Anyway, I appreciate all the support, but as always, let’s stay classy. Also, let’s stick to the truth here. If Eden couldn’t stop the K-TRAINNN then I certainly can’t.

    Congrats again to the Sailors and also to all their supportive fans. You guys made for an unbeatable combination once again.

  34. hen hud

    where can we find you this winter season, what are you going to be covering?

  35. bleacher creature 2

    alex myers has spoken once again with amazing words of wisdom.

    alex myers could also take on eden byhimself.

  36. HeGetsitDone

    Alex Myers drinks his jager bombs with a straw but everyone lets remember that Alex Myers may be the greatest writer of all time, but he’s also a mathmetician. He’s counted to infinite at least 6 times.

  37. sailors fan

    lets stay classy

  38. Alex Myers

    Thanks again for all the comments. In response to the question of my whereabouts this winter, I’ll be in a variety of places. For a second straight year, I’ll be doing a lot of basketball and swimming. I’ll probably be going back to Glens Falls for a fifth straight year for the state basketball championships. Maybe I’ll run into you guys at Quizno’s again…
