Today Results:

Quarterfinals:
Skra - ZAKSA 3-0 (25-18 25-20 27-25) MVP: Mariusz Wlazły stats - Skra 2-0
Conte or one of MB's should've got MVP

Resovia - Czarni 3-0 (25-13 25-16 25-21) MVP: Jochen Schoeps stats - Resovia 2-0
great game by Schoeps, Ivovic and Nowakowski

JW - Cuprum 3-1 (19-25 30-28 25-17 25-20) MVP: Krzysztof Gierczyński stats - tie 1-1
Gierczyński with Łasko led JW to win

Transfer - Lotos 1-3 (25-27 23-25 35-33 16-25) MVP: Mateusz Mika stats - Lotos 0-1
Jarosz alone couldn't win, Cupkovic disappointed. Mika with 26 points had his day and it was enough despite weaker Troy today.

Skra and Resovia advanced to Semifinals. Match JW-Cuprum tomorrow at 17:00.
Lotos-Transfer on 3.03 at 20:30 on Polsat Sport

Quote from ravens#7

News about Bartman? Not ready yet?

Well, recovery time after surgery should end... according to his statement he expected to be ready at the end of February, maybe he still needs some time...

Today Results:

Quarterfinal:
JW - Cuprum 3-2 (25-12 20-25 25-23 20-25 15-11) MVP: Michal Masny stats - JW 2-1

Quesque played on rwally good level, so Pajenk did. All key numbers are higher in JW except reception

JW is 3rd Semifinalist

Lower Places:

Politechnika - Indykpol 3-0 (25-15 25-11 25-18 ) MVP: Piotr Lipiński stats

All Poli's players with high spiking %, meanwhile Indykpol played quite messy. Indykpol won only 3-2, so Politechnika will have better draw for next round (theoretically lower ranked team from Regular Season).

BBTS - Banimex 0-3 (21-25 19-25 13-25) MVP: Jakub Oczko stats

Banimex won quite easily surprisingly Kapelus and Gonzalez from BBTS weren't enough, Ferens disappointed me. On the other side Żuk (best scorer with 17 points), Hebda and Pawliński got almost 40 points. Banimex won also 1st match, so they will be at least 12th in Final Standings

Draw for next Rounds:

Semifinals:
Resovia - JW
Skra - winner Lotos-Transfer (most likely Lotos)

5th-12th:
Czarni - Politechnika
ZAKSA - Indykpol
loser Lotos-Transfer (most likely Transfer) - Banimex
Cuprum - winner Effector-AZS (most likely Effector)

13th:
BBTS - loser Effector-AZS (most likely AZS)

Today Results:

Quarterfinal:
Lotos - Transfer 3-1 (25-22 20-25 25-18 25-16) MVP: Marco Falaschi stats - Lotos 2-0

Lotos played without any weaker point in team on the other side Cupkovic, Jarosz and Duff did pretty well, but OH2 was a problem...

Lower Places:
Effector - AZS 3-0 (25-17 25-19 25-11) MVP: Grzegorz Pająk stats

Pretty easy win by Effector. Key players in AZS disappointed... first game was also 3-0 for Effector, so they go further

Draw for next Rounds:

Semifinals:
Resovia - JW
Skra - Lotos

5th-12th:
Czarni - Politechnika
ZAKSA - Indykpol
Transfer - Banimex
Cuprum - Effector

13th:
BBTS - AZS

Schedule for next rounds:

13th Place: (2 games, Golden Set in case of points' tie)
AZS Częstochowa - BBTS Bielsko-Biała
13.03 18:30 - AZS host, 22.03 18:00 - BBTS host

14.03, 21.03 - JW host
18.03, 1.04 - Resovia host
21.03, 1.04 - if necessary

PGE Skra Bełchatów - Lotos Trefl Gdańsk
7.03 14:45 (Polsat Sport) - Skra host
14.03, 21.03 - Lotos host
18.03, 1.04 - Skra host
21.03, 1.04 - if necessary

I suppose that next dates may change because we don't have hours, I guess that they'll suit all to TV schedule so as to show as many matches as possible

Quote from ravens#7

Trefl Gdnask took the W in Belchatow after a 5 sets battle.

3-2 for Lotos in Bełchatów (25-22 30-32 25-21 22-25 10-15).

OH2 in Skra is huge problem - Włodarczyk and Marechal can't deal with it...Troy had nice performance and became MVP 20/42 spikes + 1 block + 5 aces

In 5th-12th places games we had:

Effector - Cuprum 3-2 (25-14 22-25 25-20 22-25 15-12) MVP: Sławomir Jungiewicz stats
Indykpol - ZAKSA 3-2 (21-25 25-22 25-20 22-25 15-12) MVP: Maciej Dobrowolski stats

Tomorrow Resovia - JW (14:45 Polsat Sport) and Politechnika - Czarni (17:00)
