High Performance Championships-Day 2

Post from Aileen.

Day 2 - 1:00am Shower for Lizzy Kalous as she mistakes an incoming text message for an alarm and decides it's time to take a shower and get ready. Breakfast begins in about 8 hours.


Later... Today was a great 1st day of competition for the Badger Region. My team, the girls national select team, won our first match vs. Iowa HP. 3 of the other teams also won their first matches. After we left the convention center and got some groceries the region teams headed back to the Hyvee Center for the opening ceremonies. We had a pasta and salad buffet that fed over 2000 people in attendance. There was live entertainment from an awesome drum line and dance crew called the, "Isiserettes Drill & Drum Corp." After dinner Angie Forsette from the USA Women's National Team held a Q&A session with the audience and some members of the USA Youth National Team. Simone Lee from Wisconsin was one of the lucky few that got to ask Angie a question in front of the group. One final piece of entertainment was a Haka dance performed by some boys from the New Zealand delegation. Looking forward to day 2 tomorrow!!
