This week in sports. . .

I am currently basking in the glory of victory from all my athletic endeavors this week.

Monday was the first day of our intramural sand volleyball tournament. My team, the Team of A, took on the other half of the A-Team. The match was close and went three games, but, alas, the A-Team won. That's ok, we'll be ready to take them on on Wednesday.

Tuesday my intramural softball team smashed the opponent with a score of 14-4.

Wednesday our first match was against the Spikers. We we three games here also, but came out on top. Now we were to face the A-Team, but would have to beat them twice as it was a double-elimination tourney and they had not lost yet. I have to admit I was a little skeptical since it was 97+ degrees and we'd already gone a tiring 3 games. But we pulled it out (in three games again!) and won! Now all we had to do was beat them one more time.
"Oh, please bless we don't have to go another three!"
We ended up winning in two-it wasn't easy! We, the Team of A, won the
2007 Summer Sand Volleyball Intramural Championship!
I have waited a long 9 seasons of intramural sports for a championship and finally, as I'm a senior, I have one under my belt! I can finally graduate from college!

But wait, Wednesday The Cracker Jack Kids also had a game-to make up for their rain-out game. I didn't know how I'd fair playing 8 games of volleyball and then a softball game at 9 p.m.-I was pretty tired. But never you fear, the Kids were on their game and left with a 11-7 victory over their opponent.

It was a great week in sports for the Whit Ro!

Way to go, champ! You pretty much rock. Does that also mean that you got one of the prized intramurual champ t-shirts? You're too cool.

no shirt for us! what a rip-off-that's the whole reason for playing and winning is to be able to flaunt your shirt! anger.
