Wildwood, Day 1

Mel, Jess, Raph and I headed down to Wildwood, NJ for a little fun in the sun. Not satisfied with playing in only one division, we signed up to play Olympic 2-2 with the Horned Melons and Competitive 3-1 with a Syracuse/Kaimana reunion team. As reigning 2-2 Champs, the Melons were seeded pretty high (not #1, but who's counting!!) while Scooby Doom ended up as the very last seed in the bracket. Basically, that meant that our two teams played at opposite ends of the beach requiring more effort to get from game to game than the games required themselves.

Day 1 ended up being a ton of fun with both teams going undefeated. No surprise for the Melons, but a huge shock for us Syracuse folks! 8 games in the bag, we headed over to the beer garden where we opted to drink smuggled beverages and play silly games on the beach (Thanks to JB EZ from Ghana for teaching us Rough Tag). Apparently, Raph and I didn't get enough exercise during the tourney.

Workout:
8 x 50:00 games of beach ultimate
lots of trekking across the sand
assorted shenanigans including Rough Tag, flutter, mac lines, & MTA
