It's been 3 years since I was able to go to Huckfest. We won the "B Cup" portion of the tourney. That means we lost a game in the pool play, were placed into the B Cup and won our games from there. I think that places us in 9th place officially, but we got a trophy, so the rest is whatever.
Our team consisted of a fairly random group of folks that Chris Hox and Evan Winer have assembled over the last several years. It's actually to the point where I feel comfortable with most of them and we have a very skilled team. I feel like we miscommunicate at first, but then we get it together as we go.
After spending most of my last couple years of college with Evan, it's always good to catch up some. 7 years after I graduated we still have a lot of things in common and the old jokes usually still stand.
Here we are after the final win. We were 5-1 for the tournament, kinda funny to get 9th place after that.
Volleyball was mixed this week. It was fun to switch up to another pool of teams. They were much more skilled, but it also meant we lost. We played tight on the best team in the league, then took a straight dump on the next team.
I also saw Ender's Game this weekend. It was one of the better book adaptations I've seen. So many of them have been terrible (the Hobbit being the latest, and about to fire it up again). This one really covered the heart of the story and did a good job of communicating the themes. The end of it didn't quite jive right, but otherwise it was very well done.
Anyways. Not the most exciting batch of news. Next weekend should be more chilled out than that even. So here we go. Still working and staying busy.
