The tournament was held at Queens University in Kingston Ontario. We woke up early and left at 530 AM to be at the gym for 8 as our pool play started at 9. Our day started slow and seemed as everyone was lethargic on the court and as the morning continued we began to step up our game but we paid the price of being tired and ended up 3rd in our pool...
We refueled our bodies during lunch with lots fruit, Greek yogurt, hummus, and Coco's (#13) famous "power balls" and then we were ready to go into playoffs meaning business. And we did. We were playing our game without any troubles until we were matched up with STVC Shock who really gave us a run for our money...
If we won that game we would be playing for gold, a loss would mean fourth place of bronze. Unfortunately, we couldn't come out with a win, but that's not to say that we didn't play our best. In our last game we took home the win and along with that the bronze. I am so proud of my team and how far we've come this year...
Each tournament we've gotten better and better and hopefully we can show this kind of perseverance and improvement when we go to provincials at the end of April in Waterloo. Great job girls and go purple !!!!
