3-3
Thats the best record the Gunx have had at a tournament. Due to a hurt thumb, I was stuck on the sideline both days. There was some problems that I noticed while watching and keeping stats.
Day 1:
Game 1: New Paltz vs. RPI "Z"
We started late due to some mix ups with the schedule but we started up after getting a very nice long warm up/self scrimage. We came out hard and scored first. The game was close all the way but we pulled ahead at hard cap to win 7-5. Ben Handbloacked Chetti!! TWICE!!! Alex Pinn had some beautiful cuts and catches and threw 2 goals to Brendan for a freshman connection. All in all we payed well but had some silly mistakes and bad drops. O BTW Doober loves "DA BLADE".
Game 2: New Paltz vs. Clarkson High Dive
After an hour and a half bye we got to play again and we came out fired up from our previous win against RPI. Im not sure about this game or the next but I do know that we lost.
Game 3: does not exist
Game 4: New Paltz vs. Purchase
Purchase got skullfucked and yet we had a bast. I realized that we play our best when we are having fun more then when we are trying to beat a team that angers us.
day 2:
Game 1: New Paltz vs. sienna
Great start to this game came out 3-0, going to half was a tad closer but we came out on top. I thought we played really well but could have been a tad better on the handle.
Game 2: New paltz vs union
god game couldnt get o working was a loss

a slow start
We started this year nicely but we are moving slowly because of no shows at practice and sick/injured people. I am one of the sick/injured players that show up no mater what. I want to be able to do practice so that i can help the new players and old step up the games intensity. I know that i am one of those who should not speak about intensity because i do not bring it in the scrimmages but i try and bring it during the drills.
Drills:
The drills have become lack luster and slow moving because of dropped passes and not "going to". In the drills we should be running as fast as we possibly can so that we can become tired and keep going. The drills we have been doing so far are alright but we need to set aside and demonstrate how the drill should be done with ppl who want the team to go somewhere. After we are done with the drills then we should explain the offense and defense and what should happen.
Scrimmage:
So far the scrimmages have been going alright a few bumps but it doesn't look like a scrimmage it looks more like grab assing or pick up. There are fouls that go uncalled and a billion travels.(Nothing being called) Ok yes its the beginning of the year buit we have a tournament in two weeks time and we need to start teaching these things so that everyone is on the same page. If we dont call them out on it during practice the team we are versing sure as hell will. I know we dont want to put too much into the new kids right away but we need to put somnethng there. I definitly feel as though we need to teach them offenses more so that they can understand it. like take a whole week at teaching offense and making sure it runs smoothly. I dont care if it gets boring but we need to put it into their heads. I know im hypocritical about things but i feel as though an offense and a deffense should be the things to teach right now as we move into our next stage of ultimate.
Things i want to see in practice:
1) ten pole:
it works well for keeping the idea of possesion.
2) full field:
obvious reasons i want the new kids to understand the size of field we have to work with.
3) observing:
meaning having te captains sitting on the sidelines calling things out and talking to us and explainging things
4) intensity:
the full speed running abilities of all of our players, RUN, if your tired take a sub, then get back in and run some more.
5) attendance:
i would like to see the attendance to rise up so that there are more healthy players then sick players that show up
I dont know what to say but i want things to pick up better

playing again
I finally Played Ultimate for the first time in what felt like a year. If you were there you could see how bad i was compared to the rest of my team. I honestly played as though it was the first time i ever picked up a disc. My throws were mediocre at best when they did not wobble. I had a few "hucks" if thats what you can even cal them were to curvy and would not fly straight for the life of me. My longest throw of the day was actually a flick that i threw with my foot that went 35 yds. Enough about the good part of my game, now on to my running and stamina. I couldnt run 10 yds without having to stop and take 2 points off or walk for 50. Well i honestly dont know what to say, i just played all around like crap. But thats gonna stop i have two upcoming tournaments one is ablany and one in wildwood. I hope that I can keep myselve together for both tournaments.

fuck da snertz
I did what i could of snertz yesterday and I believe that i am feeling it today in my calves. I failed doing all of it because i drank too much water and almost threw up. It was not a good day for me. I must push on and become the ultimate ultimate player. Alex completed the whole thing which is good for him but bad for me, that just means that i need to step up my game and fuck snertz in the ass next time around.
I must be like doobs and everyone else who is owning face and playing hard and getting in maximun play time.
In other news I am getting goaltimate soon and i get to go to magic roll this sunday to play. Im going to run as fast as i can to blow people out of the water.
The things doober said about my game made me realize that I need to work on alot of things and not just let my height be my only key part of my game.
