Our First Tournament Tropic VIII

Wow! What a great weekend. Our first tournament went incredibly well. The tournament was hosted by Waverunners and held at IPOC in Lakeland. Our line-up consisted of Rosie, Nybble, Xena, George and 2 Waverunner dogs, Ayla and Lucy. In our very first race, we ran Nybble and Xena together, 2 height dogs in the same line-up.....too funny. We finished 3 of the 5 heats and got 10 points. We ran a total of 5 races and in all of the races, we got more finishes than no finishes. We didn't get any 25 point runs but we came very close in our very last race. We didn't have anyone writing down times so it's hard to say how many points we got. Xena may or may not have gotten a title and Rosie most likely did get a title. We came in last place in Open division but it was a huge success that we were able to make it through all of our races. And we definately improved each time we got on the lanes. If we did this good our first time out, who knows what we can do in January. Look out Deland, here come the Swamp Dogs!
