16U Girls win Bronze at March Madness
This past weekend our 16U girls and the 16U girls from Forest City partnered up for the March Madness invitational hosted by Mavericks Water Polo.

The girls had an early start on Friday with our first game against Shadow. Our girls kept them at bay for the first period but Shadow pulled ahead in the 2nd and never looked back. Our second game on Friday was against Capital Wave and the girls came out strong, leading in the first and kept going to secure their first win. One win and one loss put us second in our pool, which put us in the top 4 teams competing for a medal in another set of round robin games.

Saturday the medal round robin series began with a game against Tiburon. Once again the girls showed their resilience and grit and pulled out a win.

Sunday came with a rematch against Shadow, where once again they proved to be a skilled competitor. Our girls played hard but ultimately lost (we'll get them next time!!). Our final game was against the combination Mavs + CAMO team.  The girls were happy to play against some old teammates from Montreal, but couldn't quite pull together enough to beat them.

All in all, the girls played well and kept spirits high against some really tough competition. The final win/loss tally in the medal rounds secured them a bronze medal in the tournament.
 
Congratulations girls!!
