Day Three

My results list is currently being typed up by Billy... so this will be a less detailed post, but I will post more details from today later. 

Aside from seeing a lot of excellent handball today, we saw three amazing things:
1. a player whose boxer shorts were longer than his court shorts
2. a girl in knee-length pistachio spandex
3. a grown man wearing Heely's

Though everyone played hard today as we powered through several matches (probably more today than the 24 from yesterday, but I will know for sure later), only four Boxers are moving on tomorrow: Aaron, Lindsey, Jenny, and Jared. Jenny and Jared are semifinalists in their divisions, so congratulate them when you see them back on campus! Aaron and Lindsey are quarterfinalists in their divisions. We all hope to have these four playing again on Sunday for the championships. Some schools have already been eliminated from the tournament, it is usually our goal to have half of the Boxers playing on Saturday, but we will take whatever we can get; our odds are better than several other teams at the moment.

At the end of the tournament I will post a detailed breakdown of all the games and scores. I should also have more pictures to add sometime tomorrow, whenever we have a break. 

And finally, happy birthday, Jon and Lee! 

Go Boxers!
