Today's games ( Logan and Tay ), The games were televised so I will upload it someday....
If Logan will win next 1 game, she can goes to Play-offs!

darn, i was hoping the Hitachi game was televised, would have been cool to see the comeback in set 4

did u see the JT game? why poor attacks, tired?

Logan never shows no weaknesses...so to be honest, I don't know what's happened with her.
V-league regular season reached its final phase, and she must be tired...
I think she needs just good rest!!
If Hisamitsu won the next game...I think she needs time-off last 2 games, and make good condition for the Play-offs.
She can play any positions, so she always moves round a court, it made her tired...

Hi Naa,

Does it mattter what order the top 4 teams finish? Is there an advantage for the play-offs for the 1st or 2nd team (i.e Will it determine who gets home court advantage?)

Looks like NEC, Toray and Hisamitsu have qualified so I'm wondering if there's still motivation to finish 1st or 2nd. Thanks.

01: NEC (16-7/23)----------[ JT - Denso - Okayama - Hisamitsu ]
02: Toray (16-7/23)--------[ Hitachi - Denso - Pioneer - Toyota ]
03: Hisamitsu (16-8/24)---[ Denso - Takefuji - NEC ]
04: Denso (13-9/22)-------[ Hisamitsu - NEC - Toray - JT - Okayama ]
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
05: Okayama (13-10/23)--[ Toyota - Takefuji - NEC - Denso ]
06: Pioneer (12-11/23)----[ Takefuji - Toyota - Toray - JT ]
07: Toyota (11-12/23)-----[ Okayama - Pioneer - Takefuji - Toray ]
08: Takefuji (9-13/22)-----[ Pioneer - Okayama - Toyota - Hitamisu - Hitachi ]
09: JT (9-14/23)------------[ NEC - Hitachi - Denso - Pioneer ]
10: Hitachi (0-24/24)------[ Toray - JT - Takefuji ]

NEC and Hisamitsu advantage for the play-offs
If Okamaya lose and NEC win vs. JT NEC qualified tomorrow
If Okayama lose and Hisamitsu win vs. Denso Hisamitsu qualified tomorrow
I think if Hisamitsu qualified, young player might be play the last 2 games in regular season.

Thanks, Naa.

By the way, where will the play-offs be held?

2009,3,8 match result

Semi-Final and Final will be held in Tokyo.
Today, NEC and Hisamitsu qualified Play-offs(TOP 4).

Okayama was lost by Toyota before starts Logan's game, so It was very important game for us.
If Hisamitsu win, that means Hisamitsu gain the spot of play-offs.
Logan didn't play many reception the day. She tends only to attack!!
( Reception Secc-rate : Last Sunday = 89.7% , This time = 43.8% )
Japanese players' digging and receiving are good, so teammates helped receiving many times.
Her blocks were good as always. #3 YU also did well.
LT DID all jumping serves, but 4 times Err are bit many(!?)
After the game, she knew that Hisamitsu qualified Play-offs and she smiled.

I would definitely want to see that!

[Impression]
The pioneer's reception has many error by TOYOTA's serve.
Therefore, the pioneer's attack concentrated on both left attackers(Tay and Kurihara ) , and TOYOTA was able to squeeze the defense.
