  • The Rise are Championship Bound and So Am I!

    The Rise are Championship Bound and So Am I!
    May 16 2024

    Grand Rapids comes away with the upset victory behind fantastic defense and key contributions from Marin Grote, Kayla Caffey, and Ashley Evans alongside the usual stalwarts of Dimitrova and Chaussee! This rollercoaster of a match was back and forth, but in the words of Ashley Evans, the pressure was on Atlanta and Grand Rapids just made their adjustments to win the game. The Bolt6 challenge system was also expertly utilized by Grand Rapids to help swing this one to them.

    A Swan Song W for Dimitrova and a Playoff Preview
    May 14 2024

    Grand Rapids Rise prevail over Omaha for the first time this season in Dimitrova's final match as a member of the Grand Rapids Rise. With the win, Grand Rapids has at least one victory over every playoff team. What lessons can be learned from this one and what does Grand Rapids need to score the upset over Atlanta? I discuss it here, but I'd love to hear from you by writing the show at embersnest@gmail.com, engaging on Reddit or Spotify.

    Ember's Nest is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music (new!), and Audible (also new!).

    Rise Split 24 Hour Series with Mojo, Clinch Playoff Berth
    May 6 2024
    The Rise started sharp and then came back to Earth with a 1-3 loss to the Mojo but find a way to flip the script and clinch a playoff berth the next day with a 3-0 sweep of the Mojo. The Rise briefly lost control of their playoff destiny before Columbus fell to Omaha. That granted the Rise control (again) heading into the second game of the series against the Mojo. The Rise had to figure out how to get Gomez and Dimitrova back on track while stopping Willow Johnson and they do, prevailing in a sweep and punching their ticket to Omaha! What did you think of the weekend series? Who stood out to you? Who needed to play better? Are you ready for postseason volleyball? Some sound from https://freesound.org/people/DeVern/sounds/437033/
