Well on the first week of August things got hot in SB as pressure on the field builds so is the heat . The big one in town is the USPA America Cup at 16 goals . The race to the finals took shape with 4 games over the weekend of the 5 teams one is done and we have 4 teams with 1 game left in round robin side .On Friday it was RH had a tough time but rolled over F&M for there 2nd win and Lucchese took out Sol de Agosto to get to 1 & 1 so made for a fun Sunday for sure. Lucchese jumped out a little slow as Farmers came rolling out at speed and got up 6 to 3 but it was Luc. righting the ship and out scoring F&M by 9 to 3 after that and go to 2 and 1. The main game at 3 pm got off late but was a very unusual game as Klentner Ranch took on Restoration Hardware and KR came out on fire and were up 5 to 0 when 2 minutes in the 3rd gone before RH got on the board but Big Ben and his RH boys woke up a little and won the chukkar 3 to 1 and headed into 1/2 time down by 3 and it seems like Julio Z was reorganizing them at the tent because they came back to the field with a brand new plan and RH kept the pressure on and it was a very good game as they caught the Cowboys tied it up @ 3.47 of the last chukkar and stayed tied until the final horn sending them into a short OT and a miss play hit it or lose it was the killer for RH as RH sunk the penalty and the Party was over and RH goes to 3 & 0 and have only Lucchese left on Wed. and KR goes to 2 & 1 and have only SdA to get by as they all head to the semis on Friday as F&M are out with a 0 & 4 record . Also going on is the 8 goal Malibu Cup with 7 teams on the board and it iss getting some very good action with the addition of Dawn Jones and her WOMEN’S INTERNATIONAL POLO NETWORK look it up they maybe the fastest growing part of our sport wipnpolo.com a very good cause as well .and a big welcome to Dawn and John Zigler who also joined the party Barrossa who put on a fantastic Fiesta Party many thanks to Kate and Jeff Graham .
