Double Dipped and Moving On
19 April 2009
It wasn’t easy and there were moments of drama but we were able to close out the series against UFA with a 3-0 win tonight at home. Its a good feeling and now we are down to our last series against Belgorod that will start at their place next Monday night. The winner of that series will finish the Russia Championship in 5th place and qualify for European competition (CEV CUP) next season. So, even though we aren’t playing for the Championship now, it is an important series for our club and for the future. We are being given two days rest (much needed) and Picky is talking about visiting the zoo. We are both here without our wives right now and trying to find ways to occupy the time. The end is in sight. Looking forward to a tough series against Richie Lambourne and his Belgorod team.

Congrats on the win! And we can meet you at the zoo if you are up to it! Looks like today and tomorrow are going to be nice days here in Novo. God bless, Yura and Wendy

My congratulations Reid! We are (Lokomotiv fans) completely enjoyed by week-end’s matches.
The next series with Belgorod will be more difficult than Ufa.
I wish you got a positive energy visiting the zoo. In my opinion the best place in the zoo is not far from tigers and lions open-air cage.
