The Rundown
This was the second tournament of the year where we teamed up with the girls from Smith College.  This time we were officially Bunch o' Punks, well at least more officially than last time.  It was a gorgeous day, especially considering that it was the first weekend of December!  Again, we were missing two of our key players with Mark and Jay away on IQP, but we still played hard.  With this being our second time out with the Smith girls, we were getting to know each other more and were starting to get some good flow.  Our first game was against Reservoir Penguins, a Div I BUDACOL club team.  Needless to say, we didn't expect to really compete with these guys, but we played alright but eventually fell 11-2.  Next up was Tubbs, yet another BUDACOL club team with a lot of talent.  Again, we didn't have very high expectations of ourselves to keep up, just to play our best.  We seemed to be getting better, but ended up losing 11-3.  We were really looking forward to our next game, which was against URI.  Now this would be the third tournament this fall where we would play them, and at the first one we lost 13-12, but came back to beat them both times we played them at the next tournament.  This time, though, it was URI's day.  They put together a great game and we just couldn't pull it together.  They ended up spanking us 11-4, but they're always a fun team to play.  Our final game of the day was against Wheaton College.  We knew that this would be our best chance of victory all day, and we all put our best game forward, and ended up winning 13-10. All in all it was a great day, fun was had by all.  We look forward to playing with the Smith girls again, it was a completely different experience than we're used to when there's more than one girl on the field at one time!
