Last weekend I took part in my first National Cup Final, and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever been apart of. Not only was my team competing in the Presidents Cup Final, but my club was also competing in the under-18 and under-20 national cup final as well. As a team who trains together every week, (National Team and underage Teams), I was just as proud to play in the final as I was to support our younger guys who I have watched and helped work hard all year. After three very tough games, we prevailed in all three and made history by bringing three cups back to Neptune. The environment in the gym was electric all weekend and the Neptune Fans once again proved why they are the best in the country. There is no better feeling than looking up in the crowd and seeing hundreds of the “Tune Army” yelling and waving flags in support. Having not had a great game in the final, I was very proud of my teammates for stepping up and performing down the stretch, especially the younger guys. I was honored to share this experience with all members of the Neptune Club, especially my teammates that I have grown so close to over the past five months. The joy that I felt on Sunday knowing that I was a part of a historic weekend that may never be repeated (until next year) by any Club again is something that I will always cherish. We are now rewarded with a two week break, but the work is not done yet and we still have our sights set on a League title to close out a great year.
