I'm definitely satisfied with how this past weekend went. The Cal U Ultimate Frisbee team played hard at a very difficult, very fun IUP tournament. We may have only won once, but I really believe that we learned a lot (especially from the game against IUP, who gave us a crash course in how to run the zone defense well).

I believe Keebs said it best during our last game when he remarked that "A lot of inexperienced players are playing some amazing frisbee right now." While that held true for that game, it really was the sentiment for the entire tourney. We came out of the gates flying around, playing our own game and lost our first two games by a combined three points.

Bringing things into a more personal view, Reese and I stayed overnight in some dude's house on Saturday night. Our hosts were cool as hell, but I had to sleep on the floor. (They had converted their third bedroom into a walk-in closet with a small, bench-style bed and a bureau.) Needless to say, I'm glad to be home. Though, I had some great trouble getting to sleep last night as I couldn't help but relive it all. Excellent weekend.
