2012 Hopkins Hustle wrap up

                 Congratulations to our varsity team, the 2012 Hopkins Hustle Champions!!

A huge thank you to all of the volunteers who helped make this weekend possible; we couldn't do it without you! Despite the crazy Minnesota weather extremes from the Saturday heat to Sunday morning's cold and rain, you showed up and pitched in for a variety of tasks. Some of you were there almost as many hours as Ben and I were! As always, thanks to Mama Brick, who comes back year after year; our most devoted volunteer! We most definitely showed Hopkins hospitality to all of our guests this weekend, and I heard repeatedly from players, parents and coaches of other teams what a great time they were having. Thank you to all three teams who not only played well all weekend, but worked tirelessly to ensure that the fields were able to be played on! The varsity team did a great job lining the fields on Friday, and contributing to the final clean up on Sunday, and the JV and Girls teams made sure the fields were cleaned after both days of play. JV boys also showed up early both mornings to help put out cones, tables, water jugs and lend a hand with anything else we were in need of. All of you were awesome this weekend, and I was really proud of you! We also couldn't do this without our great coaches; if you stuck around Saturday, you had an opportunity to see another side of them as they took on coaches from all the other teams in a spirited game of Ultimate that the kids really enjoyed! Thanks for not only guiding, but entertaining this weekend as well! Finally, Many Many thanks to Ben Feldman, our Tournament Director(and one of our coaches!)for all the hard work that has gone into the last few months in order to make this weekend happen; it was WONDERFUL!
