ME Regional Championships



The Gee Gees come out of the Metro-East Regionals victorious! After playing in the cold, rain and wind for the past few months, the Lady Gee Gees got to play in some sunshine in Princeton NJ for Regionals. The team played 5 games on Day 1 of the tournament, winning all of them with a combined 11 points scored against us all day. This took the Gee-Gees to a single-elimination Sunday, where the we played against Columbia in quarters, NYU in semi's, and met Cornell once again in the finals.

After scoring a few easy points against a man-to-man defense against Cornell, the Roses adapted to play zone-defense once again - a very familiar situation for our previous games against each other. The Roses played both a 4-man cup, and a 3-man cup with a pest against key handler Anne Mercier, but we had very competent players who stepped into her role, and we continued to score. 

Key receiver's during the game were endzone stars Tessa "TNT" van Leeuwen, Alisha Zhao, and Gabrielle Robineau-Charette. A final score of 13-8 meant that the Gee-Gees were going to the USAU Championships in Boulder, Colorado at the end of May. The team was so excited, and you could tell from the loud sideline help throughout the game, and the smiles and hugs that went around right after the last point was scored!
