Congratulations to the San Diego Lions on their wins in last weekend's Southwest Tournament!
The first game was damn close with the LA Dragons up at the half: SD 1.5.11 to LA 2.0.12, but the Lions dominance of possession paid-off over the Dragons accuracy, a final goal in the last minute pulled out a victory: SD 4.7.31 over LA 5.0.30. The second game against Las Vegas was less even, but to their credit the Gamblers never gave up and fought with minimal numbers to the final horn.

The Lions will be lining up against arch rival OC Bombers for the second time this season, in what looks to be an important game for both teams leading up to Nationals in October: divisional status and seedings are certainly at stake. OC came away with the win last time in a tightly contested match that came down to the wire. However, the Lions have been gelling as a club and hitting their stride on the field, with a very close game against the LA Dragons on their home turf a few weeks ago, and a great showing against Riverside's young, inexperienced, yet tenacious side last weekend. Will the Lions and their "pride" rule the paddock, or will the Bombers reign down their fury with surgical strikes?
CARPOOL MEET-UP:
If you'd like to carpool, please meet up at the Sorrento Valley Park 'N Ride at 9am.
If you are running a bit late or plan just to drive up on your own and meet us there, please call Christian @ 858.652-9971 to let him know. He will be organizing carpools and ensuring that everyone is on their way.
If you ride with someone else, please be prepared to compensate with cash (min. $10 recommended).
If you are skipping the carpool meet-up, please just be sure to arrive no later than 11am, so that we can warm up properly as a team.
