Team MMT-KWJ


Misty May Treanor and Kerry Walsh Jennings are my favorites of the Olympic games.  I've watched them feverishly since Athens, and really, I've watched Kerry since I was in high school.  How?  She went to Mitty, a high school near mine.  Oh yes, she was famous even then!

Last night's win over the Chinese team was epic and was everything I love about this team!  They work so well together and step up when they need to.  They are so good at digging deep and pulling out clutch plays when the game gets close.

Props to the Chinese team who put on an impressive defensive display.

It's USA vs USA in the finals.  I feel bad for the lesser known US team, but I'm still going to be cheering for MMT-KWJ!  I'd hate for them to tarnish their undefeated Olympic record.  Interestingly, they were not favored in this Olympics!
