But the 5 set win coming from 2 sets down against then #1 and undefeated UW seemed to turn the season around and we never lost again that year. We won the 5th set 20-18 - it was such a of exceedingly large proportions high!

This teams has a lot of similarities.

That game against UW was so awesome, and you could tell that it was a different team after that. Thank goodness the band wasn't suspended back then or I wouldn't have become a volleyball fan  :)

I recall that the band and fans were in the rafters. There's not much seating and the gym was packed. The band was spread out on the second floor walkway and fans packed that space too. Everyone was going crazy and giving the team every ounce of energy to help will them on point by point.
