Thank you to everyone at the Spokane regional event. Our team had a fantastic time there and made many new friends that we hope to see again!
The event staff was very friendly and helpful and I don't think anyone attending would have ever known that it was a rookie regional. It went very smoothly and the venue was wonderful. It was really nice for so many teams to be able to bring their own food in and eat it there without the hassles of many other commercial venues..

Our congratulations to all of the teams there for making it an exciting regional. We loved playing with each and every one of you!! You all really made us feel at home.

Our special thanks go to teams 2122 and 4082 for being such tremendous elimination partners. We have always hoped to play with 2122 and we weren't disappointed. Your "secret weapons" were brilliant and they way the Bump Box played out (with 4082 helping out) in the finals was amazing. It was so neat to see those 4 balls going in... the way all six of our hybrid shots went in was pure ballet.

Congrats to 4601, 948, 3574... you guys really had us scared in the quarters when you came so close to getting the triple!!

2907, 2522, 2928 ... it can't get any closer than going to a third match in semi-finals!!

and 3663, 3219, 3968... it was tough stopping your scoring machine in the finals... you were great finalists!!!

I want to thank all the parents, mentors, and friends that made the trip over to Spokane really special for the team. Your support is what allows us to do our best on and off the field.

Tators we certainly hope to be playing with you in St. Louis. You were the rock of our alliance and off the field you are great friends and fun to work around. Bulldogs... thanks for helping us out and we will be in contact about getting you to St. Louis....

Again, thank you everyone....you made it a special weekend for us...
