We (at least most of us) are currently waiting at the Pasco airport to fly to Claremont for a 4-team regional playoff. The NCAA, in their wisdom, decided to have a 4-team regional event (there are 42 teams total) that has the #3 team in the nation (Claremont), #5 team (Cal Lutheran), #6 (UC Santa Cruz) and us at #22...kind of a brutal region. At least one other regional event only has 1 ranked team.
At the last minute the NCAA also deviated from the published Friday-Saturday schedule and moved our tournament to Thursday-Friday. This has created some travel issues for us and have had to split the team into two different flights today. Even with the travel headaches and rushed scheduling we are looking forward to the opportunity of proving ourselves against the best teams in the nation.
We are scheduled to play at 11am tomorrow and I'll try to twitter match updates as I can. Sorry for any spelling or grammar errors in this post but we are getting ready to board the plane!
