Centex Synopsis by Ricky

this weekend we played at Centex, which is arguably the most competitive college tournament in the world.

MagnUM went 4 and 4 and fell short of winning the 9th place game, by one really awesome pink hatted thrower. this guy was happy to throw every throw in the book and hit alot of them. in an upwind downwind game, he was an unfair advantage and we needed to put the wookie on him.

anyway, MagnUM played some tight games with Stanford/UCSD/Wisc. each game had a huge comeback by MagnUM fueled by sick, primarily zone, defense. MagnUM nearly pulled off the comeback of the weekend, being down 11-7 to UCSD, tying it at 12s, but falling short.

in much happier news, we soundly beat Brown, Carleton, and Harvard proving high Wunderlich scores do not mean ultimate greatness. we also handled western washinton, who was one of the surprises of the tournament, IMO.

regionally speaking:

MSU played well, beating Stanford, UBC, and UCSB and barely losing to Oregon. They lost to UGA in the 7/8 game after losing in quarters to Colorado.

Indiana, lost everything. they lost their boarding passes. they lost the keys to their john deere's. the lost their velcro, camo-wallets (with the confederate flag on the back). they also lost nearly every game they played. with any luck, they will also lose there way to 3rd or 4th at regionals as well.

i think sectionals is going to be fun (be there.) regionals is going to be awesome (be there too.) nationals is going to make me puke all over the stat sheet (i'll just write a summary.)
