Sports update

Last week there was no basketball game for the Bayes All Stars, instead we signed up two teams for the Spring Sports Festival 3-on-3 basketball tournament. Unfortunately our two teams had to play against each other in the very first round already. In the end the team I was on won the match, but we were subsequently defeated in the semi-finals. It was still a fun event, though, and everyone got a free shirt.
This Thursday we had our next intramural league game and again we were defeated. We’ve since done some sort of analysis and believe our losses were mostly caused by a lack of coordination. We have therefore discussed some tactical ideas and devised some plays and routines, which will hopefully help us against the stronger teams — although it might take some time to implement them in practice… Anyway, we have the season’s final match next week, after which we’ll hopefully be qualified for the playoffs. Keep your fingers crossed.

On a more positive note, UCI’s men’s volleyball team has recently won the national championship! Way to go, Anteaters!
