The Olympic Generals had a lot to report from Day 2 of the Competition. We’ll start the day out with an update from Epic White…
From girls Epic White General Hayley Miller:
We’re having and EPIC time on the Epic White team! The Juniors had a ball at soccer. The Upper Inters killed it at basketball. The Debs played their hardest at volleyball. The Seniors were SO excited to play soccer on Alumni. All of the Epic Whites were geniuses at the Trivia Bowl. It was an epic day and we can’t wait for the rest of the week!
From Boys Epic White General Alex Bright:
Day 2 will definitely be considered as a successful one for the Epic White boys. They
produced many wins across the day to not only reduce but overturn the early, day 1 set back of 120 Olympic points. The traditional second day of “messy events” was the morning focus with a selection of the camp’s Option choices on show for precision points. There were wins in Chess, Cooking, and Kan Jams but, unfortunately, defeats in Ping-Ping, Waterskiing, and Fishing. Whilst Radio & Golf brought single point defeats, the Whites also came out on top in Sports Broadcasting, Video Production, and Eco Science. Split victories in Archery, Disc Golf, Trangle Ball, and the Triathlon, were worth a lot of points. So all were well fought draws!
The afternoon continued in fantastic form with a clean sweep in Upper Camp. The Seniors used the previous day’s disappointment in basketball and soccer to produce a hard fought 6-4 victory in Lacrosse. Jared B. scored a brace and Josh B. dipped in with many assists. Both the gamma & sigma Lower Plebe teams won in Basketball. Zach S. scored the winning shot in a superb last quarter victory turn around. Zach S. scored the third in a quick fire treble for the team in the dying seconds of the match. The sigma hockey team was also victorious to give the Epic Whites five wins out of five in the afternoon events.
Lower Camp spent their afternoon down at the waterfront as they competed in the Boating and Swim meets. The Juniors swept both
events while the Upper Inters were narrowly edged out by 8 points in Boating. However, they turned around their disappointment to beat the Blue Invaders in Swimming.
The first Sing practice took place with the entire team together with their terrific Sing leaders. The march song has been learned and is read for the main singing event. There was, however, a slight dent in what would have been a perfect day for the Epic White boys when they were defeated in the annual Trivia Bowl. But they can take pride and have a sense of achievement in what they produced. General Bright is delighted by the character shown by his team. Go Whites!
Coming soon…an a Day 2 update from the Blue Invader Generals.
