Went to the MACA in Philly Saturday. For the non-curlers: The MACA is made up of our club, Philly, Chesapeake, and Plainfield (NJ). You enter as individuals and teams are made up by drawing names from a hat. You play two 6-end (short) games with your team, rotating through the positions (1 end as lead, 1 end as 2nd, 2 ends as vice, 2 ends as skip, etc.).

It was fun! I was on a team with 3 Philly people who were really nice. I skipped for the first time (3 ends total over the 2 games) and that went okay. (The more experienced people on my team as well as the skip from the opposing team helped me out.) It was a long day, we left the house at 5:30am to meet the carpool, but really nice.

Didn't really feel like pizza league tonight, but was glad I went. We were up 1 going into the 7th, then stole one to win it, but it was very close. Came down to the opposing team's skip missing his last shot.
