WCBU 2015 Day 5

6-9 vs Russia (1 goal)

Finished 8th of 16 after being seeded 7th. With 7 assists and 4 goals, I averaged exactly one score per game while playing primarily D-line. I also got a few more blocks, but can't remember them specifically apart for the one I got against Japan. That one was memorable for me. Overall a tough tournament for us, giving up 4-point runs in almost every game and then having to come back, falling short in most cases. We had talented players but inconsistent chemistry, which isn't surprising for a team that didn't practice together beforehand but nonetheless frustrated us throughout. We did our best to stay positive, though, and enjoy the experience anyway.

Tryout x2

Up at 3am. Eleven or twelve of these days, never actually needed the alarm because I can never really fall asleep beforehand. My ride to tryouts missed his alarm, though, so we showed up late. Got into the drills, scrimmages, one-on-one battles, more scrimmages. Did well. Threw a bunch of goals. Maintained my footwork. Proved improvement. Learned that earning "it" was not something that I could really do today.

Had breakfast, sipped some coffee, thought about some things, stopped thinking about some things.

Got to the second tryout early. Very. Rolled out, SMR'ed, threw around, threw up a little bit in my mouth, warmed up. Played like a player. Was tired, but did good things. We'll see what happens.
