I just wanted to make a last minute appeal. I am the head women's
volleyball coach at Trinity Bible College in North Dakota and I am in
need of some volleyball player for THIS coming fall season. So if any
of you-all out there are interested and you have graduated HS be it
last year or 15 years ago, (provided you can still play) I would love
to talk to you and see if you can be a part of our program. I realize
this is last minute this is last minute in nature, but there may be
that someone looking to play on this level. (Which by the way is not
DI or DII, more like DIII, we compete in the NCCAA DII level). Thanks
and God Bless

I have been wondering for quite a while what the difference is
between the levels of NCAA Intercollegiate ball, club sports, and
intramural sports are. I am a volleyball player and am entering my
senior year in high school, so as I am looking through all the stuff
that colleges are sending me, I am a little confused. Do colleges
usually have more than one volleyball team? If someone could help me
find the answers to these questions it would be such a relief! Thanks!!
Stacy

Or a good intermediate level play in the Portland
area?  Not a beginners, and not one filled with
hotdogs?
