GAME vs. Institute of World Politics (IWP) TOMORROW
Hawks,
Last week’s closely contested game against the NTU/ATR/TF “Dynamic Scorers” ended with a heartbreaking 11-9 loss despite the valiant efforts of a deep Hawks lineup. Tomorrow, we look to get back in the winning with a victory over the Institute of World Politics (IWP). We’ll meet downstairs at 5:30 p.m. and leave for 17th & Constitution.
Please register online to let us know if you can make it and/or transport equipment & people. Or you can just reply directly to this email. It is important to do this by noon of game day, so that Coach Hey Mikey (Johnson), can put together a lineup that best utilizes all of our skills.
Please let me know (or post on “Potluck”) if you are able to head down earlier and reserve the field. This would be a huge help, so please let me know if you can sacrifice some time to start an early warm-up session.
Regarding the last game, thanks to everyone who came out. We had nearly 30 total people at the game, which is pretty awesome for mid-season, but made it challenging to get everyone involved for as long as we would like. If you would like more playing time than you have been getting, please come talk to us and Coach Johnson, who is now in charge of lineup and substitution decisions. Special thanks to Gerard for heading out early to reserve the field; to Janene, Steph, and Jeff for taking care of refreshments; and to Dan Ivan for transporting equipment and supplies.
Just a reminder: Coach Varghese has posted our complete schedule on the blog. Please note the dates and games below on your calendar, and check the blog for updates as the season progresses. For those who are interested, the league standings and the weekly league scoreboards are also posted.
Go Hawks!

Hawks,

We’ll meet downstairs at 5:45 p.m. and head to 17th & Constitution.

USIP Screaming Hawks 1-1, take on State Dept next week
Hawks,
Despite bad weather, we had a great turnout against German Marshall Fund last night. Though we narrowly lost 4-6, it turned out to be a pleasant night and we had a good time. GMF even consoled us with sandwiches, cookies, and chips. As Coach Neu said, it wasn’t as sweet as victory, but it was sweet.
Our next game is next Thursday, June 10 against the State Department’s Europe office. I hope to see you there, although Coaches Neu and Varghese will officially be in charge from here on out. Thanks for everything, and go Hawks!!
