Santa Barbara Tourney

Motion had their FIRST tournament of the season this past weekend and what a weekend it was! Motion finished off Saturday at the top of their pool with a HUGE win against the second ranked team in the tournament University of Southern California. They also had wins against University of Arizona and UC Irvine. The fields may have been everyone's biggest rival as they were destroyed from Santa Barbara Qualifiers that was the weekend before. But by winning their pool Motion did not have to play in the Pre-Quarters game on Saturday saving their legs.
Sunday Motion started out in the Championship bracket and had a tough loss to UC San Diego on hard cap. We had two more losses on the day, both ending in hard cap! But Motion scored the last point in all three games and never lost by more than 2 points, ending up outscoring our opponents for the weekend 60-48. Motion ended in 8th place for the weekend and they are all excited for the season to come and what they have in store for the rest of the season!
YEAH MOTION!
