summer season - match 1
This past Sunday we battled against The Beeyotcces in the second official match of Floyd's summer bocce season.
The Coffee Flats Terrors emerged victorious, taking the first two games of the possible three game series. Erik, Matt and Ezra played with skill and Dani, rolling on the court for the first time, made some terrific shots. Apparently all those hours spent watching bocce during the previous season gave her a leg up on the competition. The Beeyotcces were shut out 7-0 in game one.
Game two had me stepping in for Ezra (who, let's be honest, was still high from the day's World Cup match). We got off to a strong lead but faltered a bit, allowing The Beeyotcces to tie things up 6-6. Despite their cheering and huge level of enthusiasm for their first ever bocce match, The Beeyotcces lost 7-6.
I'll post photos soon. Meanwhile, check out The Beeyotcces version of how things went down during match day.

good to see the team jelling early and seamlessly incorporating new members. i'll make it to at least a match or two to keep myself in game shape in between exhibitions at Union Hall. but once the playoffs start, it's hammer time.

Forza Azzurri!
Ok, good start, there will be no messing around during the summer season. The boom must be lowered week in and week out. There is a slew of teams who have never experienced the terrordome, and they must be initiated.
