Humor in a conversation initiated by Madeleine Gates with a reporter
MG: Can you come to our (La Jolla) volleyball match at Bishop's next Wednesday? (This was a week ago.)
Pipeline (facetiously): I didn't know you played volleyball. I thought you played pickup basketball.
MG: (Smiles.)
PL: Don't you play libero in volleyball?
MG: Yeah, and I also set. (She is a high-leaping 6'2" middle-hitter blocker, so these are both enormous jokes.)
(This, from a senior leader of the LJHS volleyball team, formerly a shy freshman and sophomore.)
