Let 'Em Play

The competition is really heating up. Yesterday we resumed tournament play. It was hot and sticky on the fields and things got hot on the courts!

LSU took down Duke in floor hockey yesterday. They traded goals every quarter. LSU won 7-6. It was a great match up. The cheers from the hockey game drowned out anything else that was going on in the Barbee. Way to go Tigers!


On the softball field the Stanford Cardinals pounced on the Cavaliers early with a home run by their big guy. He would go on to hit two yesterday with a couple of RBI's. It seemed like everyone was hitting well yesterday. It was certainly a Cardinal day as they went on to win all four of their games yesterday. Those trees were making some noise!


Out on Hanes field Miami and Texas played their hearts out. Each team gave their all. It was definitely the game to watch. Both teams scored on every possession. They couldn't stop each other. It was really incredible. The clock ran out and Miami pulled off the win. Sometimes, it's jut all about the U!

Miami wasn't so fortunate in last evening's lacrosse game. They ran into the Buckeyes. This game was also a back and forth match up. Finally the game ended in sudden death overtime when Ohio State's smallest player scored on a fast break... He might be small, but he is FAST! It was an amazing win by an amazing team.

You can check out all the scores to the left of this post. Today we continue with playoff games. We will have determined our semi-finalists by the end of the day. Tomorrow we're off to King's Dominion. The semi-finals and some of the finals will be played on Thursday with the rest of the Finals on Friday. So far there haven't been any major upsets. I have a feeling today will be the day. Check out the blog tomorrow for the update. Until then, have a fabulous day.
