Warm-up victory

The Patriots picked up their 34th, 20th or 12th victory of the season tonight, depending on how you look at it, beating Community Baptist of South Bend, 25-12, 25-10, 16-25, and 25-16. Hopefully this game served as a warm-up to the big regional opener tomorrow against Faith/Lafayette.

The first two games were won easily by Calvary/Calumet. Community committed multiple errors, while the Patriot played OK but not great. In the third game, Coach Carr sat Jessie Clark and Faith Rohn, and the bench girls struggled with knowing their positions and the other girls had trouble getting used to different girls next to them. They fell behind early, 12-4, got as close as 14-10, traded points to 17-13, then fell apart. Seven points later it was 24-13. The Patriots pickup up three point before losing.

In the third game, Coach put only one sub in, and that seemed to settle the team down, as they finished off the match, 25-16.

Faith at 8:30AM tomorrow - I'm yawning just thinking about it. See you there.

Also, my daughter Katie got engaged tonight to Eric Chappell, a wonderful young man from Escondido, CA.
