Volleyball Videos!

I got a pocket camera for my birthday, which lets me do two things I can't do with my big camera. First, I can keep the camera in my purse. Second, I can take videos. Last night at volleyball I practiced taking videos. These videos aren't going to make it on a Mary's Greatest Hits album, but at least you can see her playing. The first video runs for 2 minutes and was part of Mary's finest moment in the match. This is game 3 (the only game they won) and she had a run of about 11 service points. This is a portion of those, and the video ends when the other team calls time out to try to break the streak. (They didn't succeed, as her streak kept going.) The second video is only a few seconds long. It shows Mary taking a hit, which she gets to do far too often this season for a girl who's 5'5" tall, but ...... she has a handful of kills each match (and even an occasional block!), so it's working! The hit on the video wasn't a kill (it went out) but you get the idea. Hopefully as I take more videos, I'll get some better moments on tape. By the way, these videos are on YouTube, so when you click on the links it'll take you to YouTube. If anyone has any problems with these, let me know, as I want to figure out the best way to post these.
