Day 1 - Straight to Practice
Our flight to Okinawa went smoothly this morning. We checked into our hotel and then walked to American Village for lunch. After lunch, we took the scenic (beach) route back to the hotel.
We spent the afternoon at the Kadena gym for a joint practice with the Kadena team. It was a great experience for the girls to work with girls from a different team.
After practice, we went back to our hotel for a quick shower and team dinner. Everyone was back in their rooms at 9pm. Tomorrow, we are scheduled to depart the hotel at 7:15am. We will spend the entire day at the Rumble on the Rock Tournament. We are all very excited to compete tomorrow!
Day 2 - Rumble on the Rock
Today, we left the hotel at 7:15am for our big day. All the girls had multiple matches throughout the day with some wins and some losses.
Special recognition to Olivia and Sayako for winning second in her weight class and Maiko for winning third in her weight class.
Everyone worked very hard, and there were many great learning moments for all athletes. Seisen ended up 3rd out of 4 schools.
We ended the tournament around 6:30pm, went back to the hotel for a quick shower, and went to American Village for dinner.
Back to Tokyo again early tomorrow.
Go Phoenix!
