Nationals

So as most of you probably know by now, Patrick and I will be competing in the National Collegiate Racquetball tournament in Arizona April the 5-9th. Yes this means we will be missing class for a week and sitting around watching all of the great players battle it out.  And maybe we will get to play a little too :) I am playing in two different divisions, singles and doubles. Singles is good because I have done that many times before but doubles on the other hand is a whole new story. My lovely partner Karisa and I have practiced a total of 2 times and both times I have ended up on the floor in the fetal position praying for my life- it is scary!!! Doubles is so much fun to play and probably more exciting to watch too because it is so fast paced and there is a lot going on the whole time. Karisa and I are planning outfits to wear so that we can match and trying to come up with a really cool handshake as well. She said that it needs to be simple but effective because we will be doing it a lot. Karisa is quite a bit taller and a lot more athletic than me so we make a good match? (yes this is a question) We have been playing good the 2 times we have practiced and I just know that we will be getting significantly better! So as for now just wish us luck in our upcoming competition and pray for us to get through this week of classes because we are all trying to cram everything in before we leave.
