PARC won the IM floor hockey game last night! It is a miracle!
For those who remember my entries of this time last year (see the list at the left for reference), PARC's IM floor hockey team, though scrappy, really sucked. We tried and tried, but we couldn't stand up to the ultracompetitive teams in our division. We almost never scored and never won.
But this year, we've already bucked the trend and achieved a solid win. We beat another residential college 4-1 -- that's by three whole goals! Of course, the team wasn't as tough as the teams we played last year, but at the same time this year the floor was bigger and the number of people on the floor increased to six (thus decreasing the number of people we could keep off the floor to rest to three). Plus, the other team vastly outnumbered us -- they had to have had at least twice our number of players.
But we scored early and then we held on throughout the rest of the game, and it all paid off. It was a glorious day in PARC history, finally topping our only other IM win (since I've been here, at least), in which the soccer team beat ROTC 0 to -1 (the ROTC team was penalized for arriving late). Now we can say for once that we are true athletes.
