Water Polo, Tennis, and Baseball

Talulah and I made it to three sporting events on Saturday. First up was Women's Water Polo vs. CMS. As the sign said, it was a beautiful day for Bulldog Water Polo. It was also Senior Day and we had five graduating Bulldogs celebrated before the game. We won 11-4 and the team was gracious enough to pose for a picture with us afterwards. Way to go ladies! Then we wandered over to The Yard to watch the first game of a double header vs. Caltech. Our guys managed to win both games and we got to hang around the stands with the fans. Finally, we headed over to Verdieck Courts and caught the Men's Tennis playing Whittier. Our guys won 9-0. They also beat Cal Poly Pomona by the same score later in the day. If we add in the two softball victories vs. LaVerne and our Women's Tennis victory over Whittier, our Bulldog teams went an amazing 8-0 on Saturday.

Lacrosse vs. Pomona-Pitzer

It was Senior Night at Farquhar Field and six Bulldogs played in their last home game; Lauren, Liza, Lisa, Julie, Amy, and Ali. I hung out with some of the fans and we all witnessed our seniors end their home collegiate career on a high note. We won handily by a score of 21-11 with eight different Bulldogs scoring goals including three of the seniors. That makes it four wins in the last five matches. Good luck ladies on your trip to the East Coast!

Busy Saturday

On a lovely Saturday morning, Talulah and I hit campus to cheer on several Bulldog teams. First up we saw the Lady Bulldogs tennis squad doubles teams mopping up the courts with the CMS Athenas on their way to a 9-0 SCIAC win. Next we walked across campus to Thompson Aquatic Center to cheer on the women's water polo in a close match against Oxy. The Tigers bit us in the end with a 8-6 victory. (One more home match next Saturday at 11 am.) We then walked to The Yard to catch the end of a baseball game against CLU. The Bulldogs beat the Kingsmen yesterday, but were having a lot of trouble today losing 11-0 in the first game of the double header. We visited shortly with the men's soccer team who had just finished scrimmaging with the alumni today. However, we weren't offered any of the hot dogs that Coach Perez was BBQing! We then walked back to our car to go home and cool off. Notice all the walking today. Is someone telling me that I need more exercise?

Men's Tennis vs. CLU

It was a breezy Friday afternoon for tennis. Talulah and I watched the Bulldogs take on the Kingsmen in some doubles action. I went home to take a nap (a.k.a. play speedbump) and T returned to catch the end of the singles matches. It was a solid 7-2 win and a good warm-up for a battle with CMS on Saturday morning in Claremont. Good luck Dogs!
