Game 4 Update: A Win!

Hey Everyone,

Here's a delayed update of today's game. The final score was: 9-6 against Michigan.

Today, we started off with a clean slate. We gained a lot from yesterday's practice and was able to work on draw weight. We took a little advice from the Wisconsin team, and worked on delivery and draws, twirled our rocks, and used "blinders" to focus on the line. Everyone made some really great and crucial shots. We were tied for the first few ends, and after end 5 when we stole 3, we were rockin' and rollin'.

Here are the highlights (Feel free to add more):

- Cindy threw an awesome rocket for a double take out
- Donna almost lost her footing while sweeping
- Marissa had lots of comments on her snazzy pink-striped socks
- Jen Lindsay did some really great take outs

So our final overall score is 2-2. Here's the information for tomorrow's game. Looks like we got another double header:
