2010 APA National Team Championships

We hope you enjoy these photos, taken at the 2010 National Team Championships - the theme this year was "Results"

First, the teams.  Photos later in the week would probably be more interesting, but it's much harder to get them to cooperate then...

           

We asked each team to complete the following phrase:

"We came, we saw, we ..."

Then we had them represent their answer in a pose.  They came up with:

  1. Won

  2. Kicked Butt

  3. Rolled With It

  4. Ate the Donuts

  5. Had a Blast

  6. Knocked 'em Out

  7. Did It

How many of these descriptions can you match to the photos below?

They were all hoping for good results on the tables, too.

                                               

Did you notice the guy shooting with his eyes closed?  He's a 6, and has played over 1,500 matches in the South Coast APA...

 

Blake shoots really fast.  If you try to take his picture when he's shooting, the result often looks like this:

 

Here are some players watching, and praying for good results:

   

 

Bonus points if you can name this guy.  He tried to change his appearance for Nationals and got good results...
