 Welcome back to the Aldis Burson show presented by Buffalo Wildwings. I'm Sam Murray joined now with Stevenson Men's volleyball head coach Aldis Bursons and coach two games last week, two conference games last week, two straight set wins. Take us through those matches that wins against Messiah and Wilkes. Well, uh, Messiah, that was a really tough one. I mean those guys, uh, were just determined to beat us in our own gym, and they were number two in the conference, and they played really steady. We never really broke away from them completely. I think the scores were in the 20s, you know, at the end, and that was a really nice win for the, for our team, and we blocked really well, and then yeah, it was so Wilkes. It wasn't easy, but I got a chance to play everyone, which was nice. It's always nice to get everybody in there because everybody works hard in the gym and in the training room and so forth. So those are good, you know, two good wins. We're still undefeated in conference, but I got the Knights still, and we have to play Weidner and Arcadia still, so yeah, that's three more matches. Yeah, and that Wilkes match on Saturday landing shorts, who's only a junior, became the fifth player in school history. It's record 1,000 career kills. Just talk about his play throughout the whole year. Yeah, Landon, I think he was like all conference the first five weeks in a row. It's a new conference, so you know, the other teams are building, they're all better now in the second time that we're playing them, but Landon is just a phenomenal, phenomenally gifted volleyball player. He's built like a missile, jumps really high. It's from the back row. I think he's the leading ace maker in the country, you know, in D3, so that's, it's got a phenomenal jump serve. He passes well. It's all around game is good, and he's a captain or co-captain and leader on the court. So I'm really happy to have him on the team. Yeah, and then this week you have Alvernia. It's the only match this week. You've already clinched a berth in the MAC tournament. If you win this one, you clinched first place because no one else can catch you. Just talk about what your guys have to do in that match. Well, I think you know the tournament situation better than I do or the conference. I always look at them one match at a time. We give them one scouting report at a time, and that's what I want to do is just focus on Alvernia. So it's a way game, and they've been around a little bit. They started their program, I think last year, and Deb is a nice coach for them. So yeah, our game plan is to what I want to do is get the starting unit oiled and running well for the upcoming postseason play. So I'm probably going to go with who I consider the strongest unit and get other guys in because what's going to happen is as we go through the semis and the finals for the MAC, it's going to get tougher and tougher. So I need guys ready to come off the bench that have some experience, so I prepare them for that. So I'm going to try to get other guys in if possible against Alvernia. It's like a balance. A lot of coaches just keep the starters in and let them go and get as many reps as they can, but if we do advance further, I'm going to need help from the guys on the bench. All coach, we wish you the best of luck in that match this week, and we'll see you back here next week. Okay, thanks. For Coach Aldis Bersens, I'm Sam Murray, and this has been the Aldis Bersens Show.
