Day 2:
We started the day off by eating wonderful breakfast complimentary of the ESJ Tower hotels. After that, we took a lovely stroll to the Coliseo Guillermo Angulo to play our first game against the 4th nationally ranked Tufts Jumbos. There were a few differences of the court such as the professional three point line and a wider key, but otherwise it was the same as the courts back at home. With a close first half, in favor of the jumbos, we headed in to half time confident and ready to roll. Unfortunately after a good start to the second half, we didn't finish out the game with a win because of costly turnovers.
The part yall really wanna hear about though is the once in a lifetime experience we are getting to have. Though we get angry and sad about losing, we realize that this is just a game and the memories we are making with one another are things that really matter. We usually spend our days on the beach and at the pool. For dinner we go for walks around town exploring the town and trying to find new places to eat and visit. Tomorrow we get to go explore old San juan and see one of the oldest towns in North America. The weather has been in the high 70's and low 80's so I can't complain about that :)
Our next game is Wednesday against Emmanuel at 11 am our time, which is 10 Ohio time. Hope you can tune in and watch us kick butt !!
Peace and blessings,
