CALTECH WINS COLLEGE TOURNAMENT AT THE ROSE BOWL!

you read right! The Caltech Team totally DOMINATED at the Rose Bowl in the Pasadena College Field Tournament. It was probably one of the most exciting things I have been a part of during my entire 4 years at Caltech. 😀
The 20 person team met Saturday morning at the Rose Bowl to compete against 5 other colleges in multiple events: including the Uniform Challenge, Cheeseburger Challenge, Monster Croquet, Blind Faith, Frisbee Golf, Meteor Catch, Pasadena Puzzle. We either placed in first or second place in all the events :). We had the most fans show up for us in the stands (students, faculty, professors, etc), wearing matching orange t-shirts to support the team.

The event I was responsible for was the Uniform Challenge, though I participated in the Blind Faith and Pasadena Puzzle….and cheered my team on on the sidelines during the other events.
I have a ton of pictures that I took…I think it’ll give you a better understanding of what went down.

It was awesome! We all had such a great time..and i was so proud to have been a part of the team that brought home the win! Sorry for lack of action shots….I was too busy to snap pictures. HOWEVER…check out https://gallery.me.com/bobpaz#101166 for a TON more team and event pictures taken by photographer Bob Paz.

GO BEAVERS!
