What’s up with Carin Avery? She has missed the first tournament and now the Popcorn Tourney in underway and she is (as announced) “unavailable “. Hope it isn’t anything serious.

And I thought the ARC was getting air-conditioning?

Did the building get damaged in the derecho from a few weeks ago? IDK how the weather would affect on court conditions if the AC was to be installed over the summer

The installation of air conditioning at the ARC is in progress & construction is in its final phase.

Well, I went to the game at Wash twp, and it wasnt too terrible.  Obviously I would say its a bad look, but not completely terrible. If the circumstances were anything other than "our home gym was a sweaty mess" I would have been OK with it. 

 

Honestly, with all of the decent venues around Valpo, I wonder how it would look logistically to expand the Popcorn classic into a Tour de Valpo with multiple venues hosting matches.

I certainly don’t have any insights into the coaches “unavailable “ situation, but the fact that it has now been over a week, makes one wonder, what the heck is going on.

The Popcorn tourney is certainly a highlight of the year and given we have Cincy and Michigan in town would no doubt make it a good recruiting weekend. Yet, the coach remains “unavailable “?

The only logical explanation is that some sort of investigation is underway. Let’s all hope it’s something else but if it is something like an illness or family matter then the use of the word unavailable will turn out to be a poor choice of words.
