Classic City Classic 2010 Follow-Up

CCC was the first tournament of the 2010-2011 season for the Hodawgs. Unlike Chattanooga last year, Athens, GA (home of the #1 party school- whoo whoo!) was host to beautiful t-shirt weather all weekend. Even with only one day's of practice as a team under our belt, the Ho's still managed to win three games and put up some intense fights against great opponents.

Congratulations to UNC-W on winning the tournament. Shout out to the Tufts girls who were a blast to host at our apartment (Alicia, Emily, and Julia) and play against twice. Before they left on their epic journey back to Boston, they even gave us toilet paper and beer. Best guests ever....?
