Ups and Downs

Or in this case, the downs and then the up. 

Due to a great deal of rain, the State Tournament for Ultimate was condensed due to a lack of dry fields. Monarch did get two games in and walked away with one victory. It is unfortunate they didn’t get to play a full slate, but at least they got in a couple of games. 

The good news is that they announced the top team for the competitive U20 Cutthroat Ultimate team this Sunday. Tanner was one of a few boys to have “extended tryouts” for the top team. At the end of practice, he was informed that he made the top team despite being the 2nd to youngest kid to try out!!! 

They said he offense was good, his defense was ok, but his attitude and coachability were the main reasons he made the team. We are so proud for how hard he worked and to see his skill AND his attitude be recognized. I can’t wait to see what the summer holds.

Doing what he loves

One of my favorite recent photos - coming back from the national tournament last year. So happy doing what he loves. Looking forward to the summer of Ultimate!
