We made it to El Paso...finally! I was so glad to get off the bus, and I went straight to the hotel exercise room to run when we got here because I just felt so lethargic and sore. We've spent a lot of time on the bus this trip, but now we're here. And I can see Mexico! I couldn't think of a better place to spend Thanksgiving. Tomorrow we get to practice and get our bus legs out even though we don't play until Wednesday night. It's good to be back; it's brought back some memories from our Thorne Cup Championship Series last year, and we're looking to have another good showing here on the road.
The game on Saturday night in Long Beach ended up being a disaster. It was pretty embarrassing. We were up 4-0 in the first period and ended up losing 6-5 in a shootout. No one was very happy about it, but it definitely exposed some of our team's weaknesses and some of our players' weaknesses, which will be good in the long run. The next day we came out and absolutely dominated. We won 7-2 and played much better throughout the whole game, proving that our loss on Saturday night was definitely a fluke.
