For the second year in a row Milwaukee Bike Polo Club’s Beaver Boys Placed 2nd at the East Side Polo Invite. This years was in New York City over the last weekend in June. It was a scorcher that weekend in the 90s and it really was summertime in the city, back of your neck getting dirty and gritty.
ESPI5 tried out some new rules and formats which were hit and miss. Glad they gave it a go, but would liked a double elimination (since my team consisting of exMKEan Crandal and his PDX teammate Drew lost in the single elim round).
Big ups to the ladies as well, who attended the Ladies Army 2, a women only tournament that fielded women from across the continent. SPECIAL PROPS to MKE’s own Birdie Watts for getting MVP honors and MKE’s ex-player Tina Medley now residing in Austin, TX for MVP runner up!!

THANKS NYC AND SEE YOU ALL IN MADISON IN ABOUT 10 DAYS for the North American Championships!
