Las Vegas, Nevada: After exercising, we spent the day trying to keep ourselves busy before the conference championship game. The game didn't start until 8p, so it was a very long day.
We did a lot of grazing.



It was a beautiful warm sunny day, so we did a bit of walking outside, as much as my cane-user could handle. Later, I actually did a little needlepointing in our hotel room to keep my mind off the game.



Just as we were getting ready to meet Jill & Blake for a snack before the game, word started to spread that one of the Duck star players, Chris Boucher (pronounced boo-shay) was out with a torn ACL! Oh, no! Apparently, he hurt his knee during Friday's game, but thought all was well, until he woke this morning with terrible pain. Sad news for the team, but devastating news for Mr. Boucher - a senior - not being able to play in the NCAA tournament.


Several friends sent this photo to us - DT caught on the televised broadcast! I was sitting next to him. I swear.

In positive Duck news, the women's track team won yet another indoor national championship! That makes SEVEN. The men's team took third place, with Senior Edward Cheserk winning his 17th individual NCAA championship in the 3000m. King Ches!
More snacking after the game - we met Mary and Steve's #4, Cory, and her boyfriend, Gordon, for drinks.

Until my next update, I remain, your GO DUCKS correspondent.
