Alix Plays Anchor for Team Alpha/Jeff/Alix for the Win

13  Alix, Alpha, Jeff

9 Tim, Maury, Deric

Excellent game play this afternoon as Alix and Alpha showed up around 4 rounds in, to turn things around for the good.  We kept Team Tim/Maury/Deric at 9 points for 8 or 9 rounds while we were only gaining a point per round.   Alix just has a natural feel for pointing the boule straight in, within a couple of inches.  Not an easily beaten point by any experienced thrower.

Tuesday - April 23rd Results

Today we were joined by Alix (sp?) who was brought to the piste by her friend, Alpha.  Alix was brought into the game right away, as is our habit, and she played well after just a few throws.  Unfortunately, she and Alpha jumped into my game where I was already down 10 points - so she had to wait for the 2nd game in  order to make headway.

Season Opening Game at Cadillac Square Park (Monday, April 15th)

Excellent weather for the season opener, with 70 degrees and sun in Detroit.  Out on the piste today were Tim; Deric; Maury; Jeff; Abu; and Fred.

right away the players were tossing excellent points, with Abu noticibly getting close boules every time!  Fred (also on my team) was throwing great.

We (Abu, Fred, Jeff) won the first game 13 to 4 (against Tim; Deric; and Maury).

The second game (a short one to 7 points) also went well.  Abu left for work, but we (Fred & Jeff) carried on with a 7 to 2 victory.

Not bad!

Pat, avid fan of the game, was out that day, but I'm sure he'll be back with us as soon as he can.
