Music City Tournament

[Redtwin]

Music City Lacrosse is hosting a tournament the weekend of May 21 and 22. Should be some good games that could be fun to watch. Music City won the SELL last year in our first season back. We also defeated Dewalt/Laxworld to take the Tampa tournament and finished 3rd in Chicago to a very average Cincinatti team. Everybody's back for Music City so hopefully we can keep it going. Apparently some guys from Memphis got together and decided to form a team and call it the Flying Elvises but Elvis is dead so no worries

 

Here is the schedule:

 

 

 

12:00pm – Memphis vs. Birmingham

 

Music City vs. Louisville

 

 

 

1:30pm - Music City vs. Southern Empire

 

Memphis vs. Asheville

Southeast Empire has traditionally been the team to beat but recently have lost players to Buckhead LC but they might have merged so who knows. Birmingham and Louisville are both pretty average. I don't know much about Asheville. We played them in Birmingham last year but they only brought around 14 guys so you couldn't tell. I think the best two teams are in state. There's a tournament party at either Dan McGuinesses or On the Rocks so we'll see you there.

[BubbaScales]

I won't be able to make that first tournament, but I hope there is a repeat of Elvis victories...especially over Music City....again

[Redtwin]

Ha Ha... We'll see Bubba. I've never played in one of our games vs. Memphis, and I'm really looking foward to it. The Elvises are probably the best competition we face.

The tourney this weekend went really well. Music City had a very good turnout in terms of numbers of players, and we won all of our games. We beat Birmingham and Louisville pretty handily. We beat Southern Empire by a handful, and we capped off the weekend with a 12-3 victory over the Flying Elvises. Great weather both days, and lots of good lax. Music City played well as a whole. Highlights for Nashville were Coery in goal, good team d, Kenny/Clapp/Clint at the faceoff x, and some impressive offense by Spears, Clint, Nate and several others. Matt McIntosh also made his first tournament since graduating high school. The party Friday night was also a blast. Thanks to Jenner, Spears, and Clapp for getting everything together. Hopefully, we can get some more games lined up this summer.

probably ron ainsley

[Kapman4]

Now wonder at the result then... I kid Ron, I kid.

But seriously, Ron''s so old now I'm surprised his creaking bones can still hobble all the way around the arc without tweaking a tendon or something.

Oh, did I mention, Ron I'll be seeing you in Summer League.

[Redtwin]

Yeah, Ron played keeper.
