Moving on to Quartfinals

Game Update:

Bracket play
Kazakastan (w)
Russia (l)
Greece (w)

Result: 2nd in bracket so we had to play against 3rd place of another bracket in the knockout round in order to conitnue towards medals.
We played China, a very good team and therefore a tough knockout game match, and we won with a great performance from the whole team. We came out strong, something we had been holding out on until today...and finished strong, always a positive.

Moving forward, we are playing Spain in the quarterfinal on Monday and we'll go from there. Only 3 more games and only 3 more wins.

Sidenote: I gave dad my flipcam to hang out with during his adventures out in Rome, so I'm excited to see what he comes out with....an inside look into the spectator's life.....
