"Technical Difficulties" or "Under the Weather"

Our much anticipated first Saturday of tournament play turned into quite a fiasco. The day started before the dawn with an activity bus that wouldn't start. After arriving before 5am for their trip to Moline, our players waited in vain. The bus was finally fixed and ready for travel at 8am, too late to make the Quad Cities tournament.

On the homefront, with a phenomenal group of competitors assembled for our 16-team Golden Eagles Invitational, play was on the cusp of starting when thunder forced players off court. a series of subsequent thunderclaps delayed play from 8am to 10am at which time the coaches collectively chose, regretfully, to cancel play.

We're hopeful that we've successfully exhausted all of our bad luck for the remainder of the season.
