Got To Have More Cowbell

So the Ultimate team has a tournament again this weekend this time in Starkville called the Cowbell Classic. This tournament is important because this is an opportunity for us to play teams that we will have to play in the conference championship. This is another opportunity for us to make a better name for ourselves in the conference by beating teams.

This is our third tournament of the year and we have had relatively success compared to all the other years we have played. Our first tournament that we played in was at the University of Alabama and we made a strong statement by winning our pool that everyone thought we would lose. This really put us on the radar for the teams in conference that usually dismissed us as a team that did not have to be taken seriously.

Our second tournament was during Mardi Gras in Baton Rouge, Louisiana but it was slightly disappointing. The Mardi Gras tournament has been rained out one of its days for the past couple of years. That along with it being the same day as another major tournament meant that the quality of teams that usually were in attendance was much lower than expected. We still had a strong showing at the tournament with one very close disappointing lost to Mississippi State University. Now one up side to Mardi Gras tournament was that it meant that most of our team was out of town for the tornado. We are now going to Mississippi state to play and the biggest concern is that we have not been able to practice because the storm has taken away all of our field options.
