Clinched Playoff Birth!

With our 94-57 win on Sunday vs Eos, we have officially clinched a playoff birth! I am so excited about this because last year I didn't get this opportunity while I played over here so I am really looking forward to it.  But first about the game.  It was actually a sort of boring game.  I did not feel like I played great because I missed a few easy shots but I worked hard and finished with a decent stat line with 10 points, 9 rebounds, 3 steals, and 2 assists.  I was also selected as player of the game although I'm sure there were other guys more deserving.  Anyway, it was a great team win so take a look at a couple of my highlights from the game.  Sorry there is nothing terribly exciting :)

As far as playoffs go, it looks like we will finish in 2nd place in the south division and will most likely play Lulea from the north division who will probably finish in 3rd there.  We will play a home and an away game and if we split, then they go to point differential and the winner moves on the the Final Four.  The thing which could be really cool here is the Lulea is located in the far north of Sweden which would be like a 24 hour bus ride so hopefully we would get to fly to the game.  I have yet to be anywhere north of Stockholm so I am really looking forward to this adventure plus the promise of getting to play more games!  I will keep you all updated on exactly where everyone finishes and where I will be going.

Speaking of going, Becca and I are going to Rome, Italy this Thursday for a quick little vacation since we have a bye week for basketball.  Becca has been there before but only for a day and it will be my first time in Italy.  We will be staying in a Bed and Breakfast right outside of Vatican City.  For more detailed info check out Becca's blog here! Can't wait to tell you all about it when I get back. Thanks for following.
