We're the 2009 Las Vegas Women's Hockey Classic Wynn Division champions!!
Today's game was awesome. I think it was the best game I've ever played. I skated hard to the puck, fought hard in the corners, made smart passes, got some good pokes in. This game gave me a little glimpse of "what could be" if I keep working and practicing. Me like.
Overall, our team did awesome. Everyone had at least one great moment and the win reflected that. Their goalie was doing really well (in fact, she won the division all-tournament goalie award) so our low score wasn't from lack of effort by our forwards!
The Harpies were really a fun team to play -- aggressive without being rough, poised, and overall cheerful. I was talking to one of them after the game and she said their team is made up of skaters from all over the country: Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, Massachusetts, etc. They gel together really well for only seeing each other at tournaments!
Many photos and some overall tournament commentary to come. :)
Congratulations, that's awesome! Now go back to celebrating :-) and give yourself plenty of time to sober up before getting back on teh bike, of course!
