UCSD’s Womxn’s Ultimate B and C team played their first tournament of the winter season!

After making the drive to sunny Santa Barbara, UCSD’s B team and some players from C team started the tournament playing against Stanford B. Starting the tournament out strong, B team took the win 7-4 after a super fun and spirited game! The next game was against Cali Roll, our rookie Skye "Niche" Baesen's old team and the toughest competition of the day. Despite having our amazing Cali Roll alum on B team (and maybe some of Cali Roll’s secrets), Cali Roll won the game 2-10. In our third game of the day, B-Co remained energetic and ready to play. In a hard fought game against Cal B, UCSD took the game 5-3. Finally, our fourth and last game in a row was an intense game against Santa Clara Rage. With close scores throughout the game, B-Co scored two points before hard cap, resulting in a tie 5-5. Universe point! After a long final point, Rage scored the last point, ending the game 5-6. No doubt that with our full team we can beat them next time!

Even after that first long day of playing, B-Co started strong in the quarter finals on Sunday against Cal Poly B. Having more experience as a team and building off of each other, B-Co beat Cal Poly B 6-1. After the first game, B-Co was really spirited and excited for the next game against UCSC Sol. Unfortunately UCSD was faced with a surprise zone defense, and Sol won the semis 0-12. The last game of the day was a rematch against Santa Clara Rage, presenting another opportunity to beat the team we were so close to on Saturday. However, after a long weekend with a smaller team than usual, B-Co did not have enough fuel to play our game. B-Co lost 3-9. With all the team’s ups and downs, UCSD B-Co took home fourth place! Great job to everyone at the tournament!
