I agree that's not a very good reason to travel that far (more like 2000 miles). I certainly wouldn't have.

But I thought they were well on their way toward doing very well. If they can get some basics a little more established, I think they could develop into a very good varsity team.

Also, do they spell their school name "N-E-Q-U-A" or "N-E-U-Q-U-A"? I thought I saw a t-shirt with that extra U in the name, and I'm rather partial to extra U's.
Neuqua is the proper spelling. It is pronounce "NEEQUWA" and is often spelled incorrectly as a result.

Peace
